1966 Sunbeam Tiger 1966 Sunbeam Tiger serial number B382000764. I bought this car in 1999 from Rick McLeod of Sunbeam Specialties. Rick had acquired the car from an insurance company after it had an engine fire. Rick was able to start the engine after he bought the car, but it sat untouched in his garage until I finally convinced him to sell it to me. The car was really a time machine. It had 76,000 miles and had nearly all the original parts including the Lucas headlights. The pebble interior was in very good shape and the body was nearly perfect except for a slight ding in the left front fender. The fire did not warp any of the sheet metal although it did melt one of the fresh air vents under the dash. Through the years it had one blue repaint over the original white paint. In the past couple of years I have completely restored the Tiger. It's not totally done but is close. The Tiger won Best in Show September 2002 at the Taste of Morgan Hill. more on the Tiger Interior and Engine...
