A LISTER FORWARDED THE URL BELOW. It looks like the Hawaiian company,
that moved to FL, and now appears to be in NM. is still liking for
dealers for a kit car that was never produced, when announced 20 years ago.
Seems that hasn't stopped them from trying to register the copy rights
to Sunbeam, Alpine, Tiger for cars, parts, clothing.
WHAT they are appears obvious.
Here is a 31 MaY POSTING ON THE SAME PEOPLE , ALONG WITH THEIR SITES.

Tigers and 'Pines,
Concerning the recent web site and announcement of a new "Sunbeam
Alpine, and Tiger",
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4552753569&category=6472
and the discussion of copyrights, there is news on this action.
This guy, Michael Holmes, has filed to register the trademarks Sunbeam
Alpine and Sunbeam Tiger and just Sunbeam:

<http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=ngicgb.2.2>
I wonder if there is any counter-claim, or whether the ") 2005 Sunbeam
Products, Inc. Boca Raton, FL 33431" mixer and appliance manufacturer
hasn't already received rights to "Sunbeam". Even the script looks familiar.
http://www.sunbeam.com/
Just curious, as they are both stated to be in Florida!
