The History of the Sunbeam Alpine

The first generation of the Sunbeam Alpine was produced in 1953-54 and named after the prestigious Alpine Rally in France and Italy. The name was revived in 1959 for a new model, the main subject of this book. Launched in July 1959 on the French Riviera, it remained in production until 1968. The Alpine was used in racing and rallying in Britain, Europe, the United States, and Canada.

In this book, author John Willshire explores the history, development, and production of the Sunbeam Alpine, its various models, and its use in racing and rallying. He also provides advice for those who wish to own and operate an Alpine today. This is the first book in over twenty years dedicated solely to the Sunbeam Alpine, featuring a wide range of historic and modern photographs.
