Hi Skipper.

All the technical data is in the handbook for the IV. How do you have to present the information?

I could scan the handbook pages if you do not have one and if the authorities would accept that.

Oh and by the way the Alpines are a Series of cars not MKs.

I am sorry, but in Austria we named the Alpine´s Mark....; I know this is not correct, The Sunbeam Mark I/III was not ident with Alpine. Sorry again, 45 years are long time, without a SA !

Reg. Techn. data; dou you mean "owners handbook" page 5-7 "general data" ?
If yes, that I have in my hand.

Can you tell us what information has to be included on the technical data sheet they require? If so, we can probably create a suitable sheet.

You will not find an official document called a Data Sheet produced by the manufacturers. Alpines were made before Brussels demanded paper equal to the weight of the car! (joke)

There is more data in the workshop manual than the handbook.

Don't worry about 'Series' and 'Mark'. They mean the same thing, but Rootes used 'Mark' for cars before 1955 and 'Series' for their later models.

In the moment I need not more informations. I obtain a registration copy, from a german Alpine. I hope this is OK.
