Hi,
My name is Richard.
I'm trying to fit an alloy head to my Sunbeam Minx (yes, Minx, it's an export model) but having problems with the manifolds.
Thought I might get some help here.
Here is the car

I'll put something in the Wanted section later

Sold my Alpine (avatar) in 1973, had no space for it.

Looking forward to talking to other Alpine owners.

Ed109 · Posted: Sun Apr 15, 2007 8:13 pm Post subject: Hi all. First post.

Finally getting my project off the ground this spring. 67 Series V stripped body with my paint man. Looking at a pile of parts in the garage and thinking I may try a V6 conversion as it could cost me as much to get my old 1725 back to life (15 years off the road). Anyone care to start a V6 section here? Jose's kits on the SAOCA forum apparently not best suited to us Brits.... Will keep you all posted on progress. Happy Alpining.

I support Ed's request for a V6 section or at least a modified Alpines section.

But then I would wouldn't I? Mr. Green

Hi
My name is Richard and I have been restoring my alpine for more than 20 years. I bought whist at school following a holiday job in Iraq !!!, drove it for 3 years and then took it off the road for the usual quick rebuild.
I keep saying that this is the year it will be finished (it only needs the interior doing) but work and family restrict my time.

One day it will surface I promise
