The lesser brother of Cobra
1965 Sunbeam Tiger Mk1
Roots motor company of the UK was having a tough time with their little roadster, the Sunbeam Alpine, what was actually a very nice car was badly in need of more power. They noticed what a smash hit the Shelby Cobra was and contacted Shelby about working a little magic for them.
The result is what you see here, the Sunbeam Tiger. While not as raw and powerful as the Cobra, it was a nice car just the same, and fast too.
I've always wanted one of these, they make more sense than a Cobra, with roll up windows, and a real top, and a trunk that could be used for a weekend getaway. Check out the link above for more info.
