    15 alpines

    End of a 34-year love affair. Matilda needs a new owner.

    It's will be sad day for the SAOCA when you no longer grace our club site with your words of Alpine wisdom. Big Bummer. When it's time to sell the Alpine, you may want to give the 2015 Mecum Auction in Harrisburg, PA a try next summer. The NOV Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car list a 1967 Lime...

    Turn Signal Switch

    Same thing happened to mine five years ago and a dab of JB Weld locked it back together.

    Sunbeams at Indianapolis

    Initially, I will attempt to create and send a PDF of the article as requested and in a few weeks decide on who gets the magazine. A freebie of course. Fourteen inches of snow - bad for the Alpine, great for snowshoeing. Have fun,

    Sunbeams at Indianapolis

    For anyone interested in Sunbeam racing history, I ran across the January, 1983, Motor Sport issue that has an indepth, four page arcticle on "Sunbeams at Indianapolis." I'll be happy to mail you the article or magazine for free. Have fun, Jersey Alpine (Vlad)

    You are right it is an AC pump not Lucas. Also correct on the outlet fitting. Many thanks!

    Need output fitting for SV Lucas FuelPump

    Any chance that you have an output fitting for a SV Lucas Fuel pump?? Mine is unusable and 60º weather is on the way. Bummer. :mad:

    Shifting into overdrive

    When downing shifting in OD, simply keep the accelerator pedal where it is and simultaneosly clutch in/out and shift. The split second delay between the clutch and the OD downshift, perfectly matches the rpm increase and results in a dead-smooth downshift, assuming the mph remains constant...

    New Jersey 4th of July Parade

    Great to hear that you're showing the 'Beam in a parade and I wish that I could follow your lead, but I can't make it. Any chance that you can make the "Touch of England" show in Ho-ho-kus on SAT the 11th? They usually have two or three Alpines amidst a large herd of other "boots and bonnets".
