Andy Beardow

Chris Draycott is passionate about Sunbeam Alpines & Tigers, he has made it his life’s mission to find out everything he possibly can about these vehicles & has been building repairing & racing them for years.

His knowledge is legendary & I’ve never met anyone who knows so much about engineering, electrical & mechanical, computers, stereo systems amplifier’s also construction, he is a civil engineer.

He built his own race & rally engines set up their suspension & adjusted the tracking to get optimum performance.

The panels that he has made are correct in every detail so if you’re restoring a car his are the ones to buy.

Since I joined the owners club, Chris has become a true friend with Julie his wife always supporting him in his endeavours and all of our members & other car enthusiasts are amazed with his generosity, he will help anyone at the drop of a hat. Many members have received help including myself, for which we are extremely grateful.

He is a rare individual, an honourable honest man who I trust implicitly & am honoured to call a friend.

Sunbeam Classic spares have become my ‘go to’ supplier.  They seem to have all things readily available from body panels to those random little widgets, all delivered swiftly.  When you aren’t sure what you actually need, Chris offers much appreciated advice and direction meaning you get the right parts first time.  Thanks to Sunbeam Classic Spares

I am very fortunate to have found Chris and Julie’s business soon after I bought my Alpine. I’ve had great service for the parts I’ve needed, but importantly Chris is an authority on everything Alpine or Tiger and his knowledge and advice is invaluable and if it’s a job I can’t do, Chris has sorted it out at a very reasonable price.
