Sunbeam Harrington LeMans

[zedvictor1]

At the Spokane, Washington, All British Car Show today there was a Sunbeam Harrington LeMans. I hate to admit that I had never heard of the car before, let alone seen one. It was in very good condition. A very attractive car.

Hot over there today?

And where is a pic?

 

[zedvictor1]

It's not hot today. Not even 80 degrees.
I'll try, again, to attach a pic . . . It tells me I am exceeding my limit of one attachment, but I haven't attached any yet!

Not sure but I think that was in Bellevue last week

Here's a shot from the front.

That wouldn't be surprising. Perhaps they're making the rounds!
Just one more picture . . .

Any idea who the owner is? I own one of them myself. Thanks.

Think he's a washingtonian

Um... Wow!

I'd love to see one of those in person some day, I've never heard of any examples in Canada, and our Calgary show was only a hop, skip and jump away (well, relatively)

I think he is from Washington (state). Unfortunately, the owner's time and attention were being monopolized by someone who "knew everything." I couldn't get a word in and did not get the owner's name. Should have.
Cameras and old British cars: two dangerous obsessions, James. (Is it James?)

car might make it's way to Vancouver BC too. If it's at Portland I'll get info

Yeah, whatever my profile says...

I'm also a notable perfectionist, there aren't that many special British and European cars here in hinterland, I may try to make it down to Portland for their vintage race meet one year, I've heard lots of great things about that event and that lots of neat cars show up there...

And heck, and camera gear alone is rapidly becoming rather expensive to keep up with, let alone trying to squeeze in a classic car into the mix, which won't happen for quite some time for me...

Here is a very good Harrington website to learn more about these coachbuilt cars!

Eric, I discovered who the owner is.
I've sent you a PM . . . at least I think I have . . . I'm not too handy with this site.
