Freak fact, my Humber Hawk has a Sunbeam Talbot 90 diff in it... Taller final drive...
I do like these. I really could fancy one. I have other junk I will buy first though

These are really cool looking cars. I like the funky rear door window design, with the three quarters frame and overlapping glass. Never seen that done on another car. Then the convertible is really nice, but the Alpine roadster version is off the charts cool.  |

It had aftermarket front and rear suspension ( IFS/IRS ) with 5 lug Ford bolt pattern.
That was done by another guy at the same Hot Rod Shop.
Last I saw it, it had latemodel Mustang wheels ( big Dia/ low profile tires)
It followed me around for a while, as I went to work for different shops, but at some point I lost track of it.
I don't know if it ever got finished...

That rear door / quarter window design was a Sunbeam-Talbot feature that was originally used on their prewar models. This included a two door using a similar arrangement without an upper B pillar. |

Years ago, I modified a roadster version for a customer.    Do you have a pic of the finished car? |
