in it the now.

Save it and either cossie it or duratec it !!!!!

Or sell it me cheap lol

 

awrite toff mate
hope your well mate.
what engines normally in the lotus ones?was it the 2.2 engine out the espirits? if so i know someone selling an old lotus with the 2.2 engine if you fancy putting one of them in it?sure its quite cheap.

 

awesome cars, get it rebuilt and out on the stages where it belongs, or sell it to me and i will.

 

Hi there,

Nice one where did you get it from?

My uncle used to have a few of them.

 

save it mate you know it makes sence!

 

save it, it looks like its seen some action and should get to see somemore

 

Put your cossie engine in it love these cars

 

It will be saved as no plans to sell it. Just need some help on what will fit without to
much hassle engine,suspension alxes and stuff.

Davie see how much its going for out of interst.

Morgan a bought it from fife .

studabear A ran it for a year and had so much fun

 

Lol it has crossed ma mind Carlo. A mate has a spare block
built up and ave got a spare head thats bare.

 

Don't get it rebuilt mate give it to me, I totaly love these cars.

 

if youve had it 4 years and done nothing you obviously arent fussed about it so you might as well sell it to someone that will before it rots away totally and get some cash in your pocket for something you are fussed about.

 

awsome car. do a mint mint mint resto back to standard!!!

 

It only got put of the road as the cossie took over. Now the cossie has been rebuilt it can be put to the side while the Sunbeam gets some tlc.
None of the two will ever be sold

 

Love sunbeams,had one over 10 years ago,it had the ti spoiler on the tailgate

 

Proper old school cool. N/a cossie lump a car like that simply has to have that bark from the carbs!

Love these motors, used to be a red one hooning round my way when i was at school, i'm reasonably sure i've got a steering wheel that will fit possibly out of an avenger, will get the car to fit it to one day.

 

I think my uncle will have a load of sunbeam spares. He had one with a skip brown engine in it, was a ace car. Thought your was maybe one of his old ones, the reg looks familiar.

 

That looks mint toff! make sure you do a rebuild thread mate cant wait to see this get better!

Can you pm me your new mobile as the one i've got is obviously your old one.

Tony, Dundee

 

Toff we had this conversation a few yrs ago,sell it to ME

cheeRS stu

 

Awright Toff, glad to see it's been dragged back out!

Pinto on carbs would sound the bollocks

 

That looks mint, ive always had a soft spot for these, whats it like to drive??

 

Awesome cars these.

 

Love sunbeams seen 2 yesterday on a rally and makes me want 1 my self hope you get it mint again its what it deserves

 

brilliant!!!

 

toff im sure he paid a grand for it last year and i think he wants the same back again.but im sure theres lots of bits on it that would sell and you could end up getting the engine for free or thereabouts
im sure the car runs its just been off the road for years.

 

thats a proper blast from the past
but i need that reg number lol

 

Thanks for all the comments .

Stu a mind but its going no where lol

Morgan find out what he has lying about

Davie ill keep that in mind. am on a tight buget the now.

 

definatly save it these cars are awesome to drive and are rare these days

 

Oh wow, now that is a rarity and a half. Restored to it's former glory that would be brilliant. Is it actually a Sunbeam Lotus originally, or is it a TI with Lotus paintjob?

My dad used to have a normal Sunbeam, when I crashed my own car I got to drive it about. Brings back all sorts of memories.

 

Trev It started of as a 1.2, thats what it says on the log book.
The guy a bought it of said its a 16ti engine in it now. The paint job and arches were on it also. A got the cage,wheels,seats and 40's fitted, then had some fun for a year

 

my big bro has one his has a number like ie 36 next to the door mirrorshis is a blue with the stripe 2.2 if i remeber correctlyhe's had it for a while just sits in the garage nice cars

 

awesome cars

 

That sounds like the avon ltd edition. Aye 2.2's in the lotus ones

 

avon rings a belliam sure the have a light wieght alloy head aswell?

 

soooo cool!

 

first things first mate get the retrosport sticker off dont go advertising they robbing c*nts...
