563 Sunbeam Dawn Saloon (1935) GJI 873 by Robert Knight Via Flickr: Sunbeam Dawn (1934-35) Engine 1627cc S4 OHV Registration Number GJI 973 (Tyrone, Northern Ireland) SUNBEAM SET www.flickr.com/photos/45676495@N05/sets/72157623847032276... The Sunbeam Dawn was the last of the old Wolverhampton-based Sunbeam, did not survive the Great Depression. It fell into receivership in 1934 and was sold by the receiver to the Rootes brothers. The Dawn was a last ditch attempt to open up a Sunbeam to a wider market, by moving from what were perceived to be exclusive prestigious expensive cars. But there was no skimping on the workmanship, and the Dawn was technologically advanced with wet liners, an aluminium cylinder head block and independent front suspension by upper wishbones and a transverse spring. Originally offered with a Wilson pre-selector gearbox it reverted to a conventional four speed transmission on the later models. The car was however weighty at 26cwt, which affected performance and expensive at £ 485. The Dawn was sold as a 4-light or 6-light Saloon Having bought both Sunbeam and Talbot Rootes combined there names as Sunbeam-Talbot to offer what were basically upmarket versions of their Hillman and Humber stablemates. The marque name continued until 1955, when cars were again known as Sunbeam, but were a far cry from the pre-war built Wolverhampton cars.
