The Rare British Muscle Car
Its rare to find a car that is over 50 years old in the condition this Sunbeam Tiger is. At first glance you would
not believe this was a barn find. The body is straight and dent free with minimal rust if any. The interior is
worn and needs some restoration, as to be expected after 50 years. This lightweight British sports car starts
right up and drives great. The Ford V8 still pulls strong and is certain to put a smile on your face! Aside from
the excellent driving experience, this Sunbeam Tiger for sale is original and Registered in the Roote's Sunbeam
Tiger database with the original engine and transmission. Making this car an excellent restoration candidate as
top restored and concours level restoration examples are going for over $100,000. As time goes on, it will only
increase in value more.
History of the Sunbeam Tiger
Light British sports car, powerful American muscle, and refinement made the Tiger all things to all people.
Sunbeam Tiger advertising (reading well for the era) toted that it was, "Versatile! Drag it. Race it. Swing with
it." We wont comment on the last portion but the car does the first two things very well. The car was actually a
collaboration with Carrol Shelby and the first prototype race car was built by the legend himself. After more
work, the first Sunbeam Tiger competed in the SCCA Divisional race at Tuscon in April 1964. The launch of the
street version of the Sunbeam Tiger coincided with the race debut. The Tiger was light, small and powerful which
ended up making it a little hard to handle on the race track due to over steer. The Tiger sold in very low numbers
and after 3 years of production
