AN ALPINE PINNACLE
The Series V Alpine had a new 5 bearing engine of 1725cc, and was fitted with a pair of Stromberg carburettors resulting in an enviable 99hp driven through an all synchro manual transmission with overdrive.
This Alpine was imported from Pennsylvania in 2011 as a genuine one owner car with only 52,323 miles on the odometer. It was subsequently stripped to a bare shell, converted to RHD and completely restored for the new owner's wife.
The body was refinished in 'British Racing Green' 2 Pack enamel clear over base, interior retrimmed, all rubbers replaced, and ‘Resomat’ sound deadening and insulation fitted. For your additional comfort the Alpine boasts air-conditioning as well as, of course, an Alpine MP3 player with 4 speakers.
The brakes were comprehensively overhauled, while the steel case Toyota 5-speed gearbox was rebuilt by specialists, as were the Stromberg carburettors and Bosch electronic distributor. The engine was completely reconditioned, block bored and line bored, new flat-top pistons, bearings, reground camshaft, the large valve cylinder head gas flowed and much more. The six inch wide Dunlop wire wheels were stripped, etch-primed and powder coated.
A comprehensive history file, parts catalogue and workshop manual from the previous owner/s accompany the Sunbeam.
The Alpine drives superbly with a strong engine with great flexibility matched to the smooth, accurate 5-speed gearbox. This is likely to be the one of the very best Alpines in Australia, having won a number of awards.
