Description

  • Produced between March 1963 until January 1964, the Series III was a transitional model and not many right-hand drive examples of the 5,863 cars built have survived
  • This example is understood to have been shipped to South Africa in 1964 as a CKD, right-hand drive export with SA and Series III stamped chassis numbers
  • The history file evidences the UK-sourcing of parts for its 2017 restoration in its native South Africa. Subsequently imported and registered with the DVLA on 05/07/2020
  • It remains really well presented in gleaming Carnival Red with a black hardtop and chrome wire wheels
  • Stored in a de-humidified facility, the odometer reads 59,725 miles, and has appropriate ageing to the digits and other instruments
  • The Sunbeam Alpine is often regarded as the first 'Bond' car with Sean Connery behind the wheel of a Series II in his debut as 007 in Dr. No
  • Keenly estimated, and offering a stylish alternative to many of its 1960s contemporaries, we welcome close inspection of this handsome and well restored car
