Description
This 1965 Sunbeam Tiger is finished in red over black leather and powered by a replacement 302ci Ford V8 and five-speed manual transmission. A refurbishment between 2015 and 2018 included disassembling the car, repairing rust, refinishing the body and interior, and installing the aforementioned engine and transmission. Features include a removable hardtop, a black convertible top, a fiberglass hood, and a burl wood dashboard. The car was disassembled, and the body was placed on a rotisserie and stripped before rust repairs were completed. An LAT 79-style hood was then fitted, and the body was refinished in Carnival Red. The removed hood was refinished at the same time and is included with the car. Additional equipment includes a black convertible soft top, a color-matched hardtop, and chrome moldings and bumpers. Black 13? steel wheels wear chrome hubcaps and trim rings and are wrapped with 185/70 Kumho Solus tires showing 2016 date codes. Braking is provided by front discs and rear drums. The cabin features low-back bucket seats upholstered in black leather with red inserts.
