I just purchased a 67 Alpine. The sheet metal is in excellent shape but needs mechanical and cosmetic restoration. I restore cars as a hobby but this is my first Sunbeam. I’m sure I will have many questions in the future but there’s one that needs answering before I even start. What engine do I have? It’s not original but it’s based on the original 1.7L. The vin on the block is B389001551 and the 3 stamping on the head are 1981161, H67A, and 3469. Notice the “flutting” on the head between the spark plugs, the different valve cover, and the single carburetor in the attached pictures. Any help is appreciated.
