Title: 1931 Sunbeam Lion decal
Post by: sports9 on January 30, 2016, 09:47:37 AM
So I've been contacted today by a friend who is painting a 1931 Sunbeam Lion and he needs to know what the correct tank badge was for this year as well as dimensions along with coach line shape and whether there was anything on top of the tank. I hope someone will have some info on this as well as perhaps a drawing giving the precise dimensions of the design and coach lining.

I had forgotten about http://www.sunbeamsidevalve.com/   what a useful site!

Also people have asked me in the past whether it is possible to get a Lion tank transfer..... the VMCC do not appear to supply them.  See http://www.vmccshop.net/c/419/sunbeam  and neither do Brtish Bike Austria.

Perhaps our club should get some made?

A transfer that big is going to be a right beggar to smooth around the curves, unless the outline is cut out..john
