Super Clean Front Grille For Early Alpine Or Tiger on 2040-parts.com
Sunnyvale, California, United States
|
I purchased this back in the 90's to be used on my late model Alpine/Tiger, 1967 to be precise. I knew, at the time, that this grille was from an earlier model, perhaps a Series I, II and/or III. I'm not precisely sure. I considered making it fit on my 67 but it was ever so slightly different. I would have needed to modify the grille and it is in such good condition, I really didn't want to risk damaging it - so I decided to make it available to someone who's restoring an earlier model - perhaps you?
You simply cannot find these anymore! They're impossible to locate, and if you do, they're trashed. Look closely at this one - it's truly clean and straight. As you can see from the photos, it's super clean. The steel brackets that hold it together do have some surface rust on them, but it cleans up easily. The stainless surface is amazingly clean for a part that was built in the early sixties and used for multiple decades on a running Sunbeam Alpine or Tiger. This grille will work on both! Please note that one of the small round clips is missing. But anyone who is serious about buying and using this in their restoration will most likely want to dismantle the entire grille, clean up both the stainless and steel brackets, and reassemble with stainless clips which can be easily found these days. Please review the photos and ask questions before bidding. I'm in the process of reducing my very large cache of Sunbeam parts, and when you bid and win, it's yours - I'm afraid I cannot accept returns. I'm sure you can understand. I'm offering this with free domestic (US only) shipping, so you don't have to worry about those costs, which will be significant. Also know, that I will professionally pack this to arrive in it's current excellent condition! Thanks for checking this out and best of luck! BB |

Analysis: why GM is pulling Chevrolet out of Europe
Wed, 06 Nov 2013The news that Chevrolet is to leave the western European car market (while staying in eastern Europe and Russia) is not a huge surprise, but it provides an interesting contrast to the success of fellow Koreans, Hyundai and Kia. “Fellow Koreans?” you might say, “but isn’t Chevrolet American?” Yes and no. The Chevrolets we were getting were all made in Korea in the factories that used to be owned by Daewoo, except for the handful of Camaros and Corvettes, which were authentically American.

This is the latest track-focused race car bound for 2015’s GT3 championship and is based on the McLaren 650S and the same carbonfibre MonoCell chassis. Large air intakes and a massive front splitter dominate the new McLaren’s front end, giving it a more aggressive look while new lightweight carbonfibre bodywork wraps around redesigned air intakes for better cooling.
