Description
This beautiful Sunbeam Alpine Harrington is a very well-maintained classic vehicle with a long written record of any work done to it, as well as having many MOT certificates and other supporting documents going back years to show the life and history of the car. A folder full of previous work and history to support the car including original invoice.
Originally made in 1961, along with only approximately 110 other Alpine Harringtons, this vehicle is definitely one for the collectors and true enthusiasts. This is one to be enjoyed, to be taken out on a leisurely Sunday drive during summer or to be shown of at car shows. This is truly a car that’s been loved its whole life and the paper work and condition of the car shows this. The car has been used and enjoyed by its previous owners and the mileage shows this, the term smiles per mile comes to mind.
The body work is in very fair condition for the cars age, and you can see this in the photographs that have been taken, we have tried to capture every possible angle. The interior is comfortable, stylish and still provides that 60s feeling and design. The original cream interior was changed out for a more stylish black leather partnered with red accents around the edges of the seats.
The vehicle has been thoroughly looked over at Fourways Engineering and recently received a recommissioning totalling over 4k.
Thomas Harrington Ltd was a coachbuilding firm founded in Brighton in 1897 and specialised in making coach bodies although they also made armoured vehicles in wartime and even bodied a few cars for Rolls-Royce and Talbot.
They also became agents for the sale of Rootes cars so it was natural that Sunbeam turned to Harrington when they wanted to create a Coupe version of their Alpine Roadster in 1960. Each Harrington Alpine was handmade to order and no two are exactly alike as customers could specify their own interior trim and mechanical upgrades.
