Whilst rummaging around some old external drives, I found some photos of the original car that I must have gathered for reference.

                       


Also, it seems that George Turner may be producing an Alpine, and it looks like it has the wrap around rear screen, which I always thought was nice.

Cool photos. It would be nice to see a 1/32 Sunbeam. I'm putting a Ford 289 cubic inch V8 in mine!

I hope George T. finishes that Sunbeam real soon.  I've got a Revell 1:32 static kit that I want to convert, but I think I'll wait for the George Turner version.

Hi Bob. Kindly let me know if you'll part with your Revell kit after you get your George Turner body? I've been looking for ages.

Cheers,
Ken

Ken - I'm always looking for 1:32 kits for classic British sportscars that aren't readily available from slot car manufactures.  I've accumulated several for future projects.   The Sunbeam is one that is difficult to find. I have currently have two, but plan on keeping them.  I was glad to see SCX recently released the 1955 LeMans MGA, which I'm currently working on.  Out of the box, it would barely get around my non-mag track, the one I have will require much work.

I enjoyed your TR4 project.

[KensRedZed]

Bob. I can't blame you for keeping them.

I'm a little bit like you. I still have an Aurora Triumph Spitfire, and Airfix Healey Sprite still on my build list. 

Thank you for your kind words. The TR4 runs like a dream. 

The Rover BRM runs well too. Must be something to do with British cars.

Harsh indeed, I think it's better looking than the real car.

Thankfully this thread got me searching....
