"Dr. No" Turned 50 Today

"Dr. No" turned 50 today (October 5th). Still would like to know the history of the blue Series 2 that appeared in the movie. Guessing the salt air didn't take kindly to it. Still, I can't help but wonder. And I would guess someone in Jamaica knows what became of the car.

The license plate might be the clue to discovering the car's history: "Z 8301."

Great little summary and photos of the Alpine that appear's in the movie is here: http://autouniversum.wordpress.com/2011/06/11/the-cars-of-james-bond-sunbeam-alpine/

Cheers,
