          the series 3 had the larger bumper over riders, same grill as series 1/2, small single front directional /parking lights and the large rear fins. it also had the door wing windows and windshield like the series 4/5 and tigers.

          Now I see that the sign says "Sunbeam Alpine MkIII" (same spelling as/or in English) 🙄

          Sandra replied that she did not take any other photos… thus we are left to conjecture?
