Sunbeam Alpine picture request


Recommended Posts

Posted

Has anyone got a good front on gonzo pic of a Sunbeam Alpine so I can gauge what the panel gaps should be?

 

I need a good close up of the bonnet to see how its meant to look as this car was truly rubber ducked, the bonnet wouldnt shut as it was tight on all 4 edges

 

I've only found one decent one so far on google images, have you guys got any in your flickr/photobucket that show the lines off well?

Thats interesting, same problem as the one I'm doing,the corners are too tight and if you look 200mm upwards from the front corners theres a flatted off bit

 

Are these local cars? wouldnt mind seeing some close up to get an idea of what goes where

 

This is how bad it got, its a bit better now Ive repaired the valence/straightened the chassis/repairedNSF wing and radiator panel but little things like that picture showing the chrome 'eyebrow' doesnt cover everything as you see glimpses of paint around it

The top ones a local car, the photo was taken at Aldeburgh but I don't know who's it is.

 

You do bodywork do you Mike? as in resprays? Do you use a booth?
