It's Neds Tiger which i believe is known to the club, can't upload a photo as i need an online photostorage account, unless i email it to someone & they do it.

cheers

Hi Guys,

The tiger is registered as I was a member of the STOC a number of years ago,
Just to refresh your memories the chassis number is B9473339 on NAN 614 D, bought from Keith Hampson in 1999.

Cheers Ned

It can't have many miles on the clock after such a short time on the road.

What colour was/is it? Edit. It's forest green.

Somehow i don't think high mileage is the issue here :-)

To answer your original question, try Beeches Garage, Shipleys or look in the back of any classic car magazine.

Does anybody in the Club know of a good car transport company that goes to Europe?
