Well the seller clearly doesn't know much about the cars.
The cars were only column shift, so no factory 4 speed floor shift. There was a period Hartwell floorshift conversion...but less likely to see that stateside. Normally the floor shift indicates a gearbox swap.

As for only 64 in USA... Wonder if they mean in 1954.. car has the optional rev counter that was standard on the later 55 alpine mkiii that also had the wing vents....

At 60k ...think they are on a wing and a prayer

If anyone is interested my friend here in Nova Scotia has his for sale, much less $’s than the above one. He drove it to the United when it was held in St. Michael’s, Maryland. Still driving it. Originally a California car.

It’s a Los Angeles Craigslist listing, South Caroline tags, and it’s in Huntsville, Alabama. Hard to believe only 64 were brought in USA. As mentioned before the car came from the factory with a 4 speed column shift. Something maybe waffling a smell.

Back in the '90s a guy asked me to take a look at his first Gen/proper Alpine.

After coming to the conclusion most if not All of the hardware is Whitworth,

I begged off the project.
