Re: Throttle Linkage
Hi Alpine5gt, all LHD Tigers had a cable operated carb,RHD would have the linkage. The throttle pedal and cable are fixed to the trans tunnel,and run to a bracket on the inlet manifold. Quite correct. I have bought a linkage unit to convert my Tiger to RHD. I will have the cable assembly for sale e...

Update, It was annoying me (nicer word) so I got a straight edge and checked the rear B piller. Yes, a bulge (it was a doner, not a NOS unit) I then got the longboard out and there was BOG there. 5 mins worth and the door closed. Tight fit but closed. so this proffessional gave it a quick look, said...

door fitment
Hi, I have a tiger that was hit on the right side many decades ago. When I got it I removed both front fenders, the right rear fender and replaced the right door. Now I am a handyman not a body man. I spent a long time removing the front & rear right fenders. I made sure the weld holes lined up ever...

Body/frame measurements
Does anyone have the body/frame measurements for a Tiger/Alpine. My Tiger was hit hard on the rights side a long time ago. The body man wants to measure things to make sure it is correct before he refits doors etc. Oops, found them in the Rootes workshop manual. For the Alpine however will be the sa...

I have been told that the corsa set-up does not centre as it has been designed for a front wheel drive vehicle so there is not sufficient load on the front wheels. If so take care on roundabouts :oops: Can anyone clarify this :?: If you check a few posts above, apparently Jim Owen has made kits and...

Steven, This whole STICKY thread has been for the sake of discussing "Re Shelling" No one on here is questioning the legitimacy of your car because you have changed wings (Fenders? Mudgaurds?) It is still obviously a Tiger. The point we have been trying to thrash out here is this, The subtly modifi...

While this thread has been active again, my Mk1 is about to have its left front mudguard replaced. I have already replaced both right side mudguards and door. All replacements are from accident damage, not rust. It seems a shame to replace non rusted panels however I will keep them where possible. I...
