Sunbeam 9A 1935? Please identity year and need par
« on: March 29, 2006, 12:13:54 AM »
I recently purchased a partial 9A that seems like 1935 or close year, it has tank mounted shift exposed valve springs and dual exhaust pipe very similar to the 1935 9A in the Sunbeam gallery.
The frame number is D A (?) 12464 Motor number PP 1049, cylinder marked 600.

I need:
Front mudguard with stays
Petrol tank with the shifter
Rear piece of the rear mudguard
Both wheels hubs drums brakes
Handle bar with inverted handles
seat
exhaust pipes

Any help inc direction to sources is greatly appreciated

Jacob,

The VMCC Machine Register is not particularly helpful but your machine would appear to be earlier than 1935. Possibly 1932 or '33. I don't know Sunbeams but suggest that you do a search on the Net for a Club, or whatever. Somewhere I have the latest list of VMCC Marque Specialists can't locate it right now. (My specialisation is Triumph)

Regards, Peter C.

YOU DO INDEED HAVE A SUNBEAM 600 CC MODEL 9A.
FROM YOUR ENGINE & FRAME NUMBERS IT IS A EARLY 1932. SPARES ARE DIFFICULT TO FIND NOW.
