The description for this forum mentions introducing yourself, so here I go...
As stated in the thread title, I am a new owner (as of last week) but I am not new to Sunbeams. My dad has had them since I was in high school...and that’s been a while. He owns a ‘65 Alpine GT and a ‘66 Tiger...both that he restored personally.
I am thrilled to have this ‘67, which for around 30 years has belonged to another member of the family. It was a pretty new mechanical restoration when he bought it and he restored it cosmetically (with my dad). That’s the good part. The bad part is it hasn’t been driven in about 25 years. I’m about to begin bringing the old chap back to life and between the wealth of knowledge my dad has and the hours per day that I’ve been spending on this site, information/advice does not appear that it will be an issue.
I’m looking forward to being a contributing member of the club and hopefully shaking the hands of many of you sometime. See you around!
