michael,
just out of curiosity, do you think that a rebodied tiger could never be tac'd? and if so,why?

i still think michael needs to look at a bare metal alpine body and a bare metal tiger body side by side. then he would understand a little more about the jenson changes to the alpine shell. i wonder if he has compared the photos of the trans tunnel of my series 4 to the photos of a MK1 tiger trans ...
