My mates Sunbeam
I no its not a ford but i had to show some boys on here, and plus my mates a big ford fan aswell. 
I havent seen many sunbeams but this 1 is...........ummmmm a bit diffrent 2 say da least
It was a national hot rod car when he bought and it had a 1600 cross flow on carbs in it, but it shat it pants after a couple days of being the owner
But now hes put a vauxhall XE in there which has been rebuilt from scratch, and it looks pretty cool, and it should be having the key turned ova maybe this weekend. So fingers crossed for him
Life with the cross flow
And now an XE
Comments welcome
