When ordinary just won't do

1967 Sunbeam Alpine RestoMod with Nissan Turbo Power

May 9, 2017 by Paul Crowe

The owner of this Alpine purchased it used and after surveying the condition it was in due to a previous owner's "improvements," he decided there was little choice but to do it right, which basically meant removing all of those earlier "upgrades," taking the car down to bare metal and starting fresh.
