sunbeam

a sunbeam is usually to be treasured....especially one that suddenly appears, and just as quickly disappears, outside on the street

this is a Sunbeam Alpine, Series 3, dating from the early 1960s....I usually park here, but readily deferred to the special interloper

Nice little cabriolet. Great encounter! V

Ooooh, I haven't seen one these for many years, David. I actually owned an Alpine car, but it didn't look like this. It was a Talbot Alpine family saloon ~ not nearly so sporty!

I love the Alpine, what a classic!

At least you managed to get a good shot while this car was in your spot David.

A convertible at that! Perhaps you could allude to a joyride?
Nick Paoni01-Aug-2018 20:43
Understandable that you would relinquish your spot to this cool classic. What a treat.

Looks like it is in great shape! Would hate to go on the parts chase when the time came, but still, beautiful.

At first I thought you'd traded in the venerable Jetta!
Tom LeRoy01-Aug-2018 13:12
It was a finely styled sports car, and still is as we see here. A real Sunbeam! V
LynnH01-Aug-2018 11:36
How nice to see one of these! Would have been a treat to find this in my space.

Great looking car. My Dad had one of these back in the early 1970s. V.
