Only one picture of this car is known to exist, but now available as a bespoke period car
Do we know what the car definitively is? No. However, it is very likely to have a Sunbeam Alpine base. Could it be a gullwing? Yes. Could it have a flip front? Yes. Is it smaller than Alpine size? Extremely unlikely as we will demonstrate.Let’s deal with the last bit first. After years of researching this car the body parts and latterly a chassis had all been designed. The legalities of registration had been covered and proven possible to achieve.
The Mystery Car is now available for purchase with a Ford 289 engine and bespoke aluminium composite, yes this is a period item, chassis. A latter day AC Cobra hardtop. We call it the Bracco MKVII by our brand Forte Vision.
Specification is completely bespoke and to keep within the licencing rules you will be helping assemble the car.
The Mystery Car project came about from many long running threads on car websites. Over several years many answers came to nothing, and it appeared, and in fact to this day remains, a vehicle that nobody knows the answer as to the designer, owner and whether it still exists.
3D Engineers took on the challenge and within a few weeks solved the car design in terms of size. The actual car we believe to be a Sunbeam Alpine based vehicle, but still there is no conclusive proof.
Getting to completion of the design involved reverse engineering parts parts, camera matching and moving between several computer programs with a high level of skill and knowledge and 3D scanning cars, car parts and areas of Oxford Street where it joins Vere Street.
