Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
@TheSunbeamAlpineChannel This video, filmed at the U.K. Sunbeam Alpine Owner's Club National in 2023, details the history of Harrington coach builders and their involvement with Rootes told by family member Justin Harrington.
This amazing story is a video record of how one of the most remarkable of all the coach building companies developed and how the beautiful Harrington Alpines came to be.
It is over an hour long, so get a cup of tea (or a beer) settle down and enjoy the story.....

We are glad that you enjoyed this fascinating story.
What an interesting presentation of a great British Coach Builder working life, I first got to know about Harrington as my brother worked for the Roots Group at the time they were building the Alpine version and he had one for a short time in the early 60's. I wish it was still with the family. Great video. Bob

It is a great story isn’t it Bob. I bet you do wish that you had the Harrington Alpine!!! They are a beautiful coach built car, I wish I had one.
Interesting, just visited in my home town a gentleman with a Harrington..my father, now gone, tried to purchase one in the early 70's. I maintain his series 3 now, some 60 years after he purchased it.

The Harringtons are very special cars. With all of these classics we are lucky to have them in our lives, modern cars are dull in comparison. A Series III is a beautiful car and gives you a direct link to your father’s memory that must be a lovely feeling every time you drive it.
