Hello again from a Broad ( :roll: ) are you aware that all the Europe spec "Alpine 260 's " (read Export Tiger) had the B 947 chassis # punch - stamped into the bodyshell ( Graham Vickery can show you exactly where - cue pic, please Graham 8), - into the bulkhead, as well as the rivetted body tag) f...

Hello again guys - so here's a thought - what IF, a european spec Alpine 260 is beyond repair, and the owner transplants it into ALPINE shell, then is that tolerated by those who don't agree with the laissez-faire attitude of some of us ?
