If your car is the one I think it is (was Artic White now red primer?) the scuttle holes can be welded up by any decent body shop in ab...

Tiger wanted **FOUND**

If anyone out there has a genuine Tiger under a sheet they are not using which requires some restoration or recommissioning I may be very interested in buying it? Anything considered.

Many thanks

He thinks he was the 2nd owner, the 1st being Mrs Dickinson of Argylle Cars of Nottingham. The car remained in the area after my father (Alan Wilkes) sold it to a local garage. U...

When I turned the shell on its side to paint the car it was full of orange desert sand! I just wondered what has become of the car and wha...
