This 1965 Sunbeam Tiger Mk I is finished in Midnight Blue over gray leather and powered by 260ci V8 mated to a four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes Minilite wheels, a blue soft top, front disc brakes, and chrome bumpers and trim. The current owner purchased the car in 2015 and it is now offered on dealer consignment with a Coventry Transport Museum Certificate of Vehicle Authenticity and a clean Florida title.
The car was refinished in the factory Midnight Blue before the owner bought it and it features a matching soft top. Close-up photos of the paintwork and trim are provided in the gallery.
The 13″ Minilite wheels feature Carroll Shelby Wheels center caps and are mounted with 205/60 Radar Dimax Classic tires. Braking is from front discs and rear drums.
Thecabin has been reupholstered in gray leather with matching carpets and features a wood dashboard, a passenger-side glove compartment, and an ashtray.
The wood-rim steering wheel sits ahead of a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 40k miles, approximately 500 of which were added under current ownership.
The 260ci Ford V8 is equipped with an Edelbrock inlet manifold, finned valve covers and a matching air cleaner.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
The Coventry Transport Museum Certificate of Vehicle Authenticity was issued in September 2020 and lists the chassis, engine, and gearbox serial numbers.
The VIN listed on the title is “B9471795”, which omits the LRXFE suffix on the chassis ID tag shown above.
