Hello all !!

I think it IMPORTANT that I bring this to everyone's ATTENTION, I went =
and surveyed a car for a very good friend of mine today, as he is out of =
state, and the car is here...

It is advertised as a 1967 MK2 TIGER, and has so apparently been =
advertised for a while.
The car is incredible, stunning, and has parts on it to die for, and =
again I am no expert, but I know enough that when something sounds to =
good IT IS, and IT WAS...

I checked the general points that I have been shown to look for, and =
although somewhat cleaverly masked over, I spotted them.

The seller does state " IT IS A MK2 TIGER !!!!
After I got home, I looked it up in Norm's book,  THANK GOD FOR NORM !! =
he has really put us into the 21st century, on the right foot.
The car is in there, and specifically mentioned it as an ALPINE...

In closing, we have to get even closer knit together, and see to that =
this does not happen to anyone out there,
I could just see the egg on my face, if I would have purchased this car =
for my friend.
And he had found all this out !!!! If this was going on in the Ferrari =
club, or the Shelby club, there would be warnings in their newsletters =
all over, it is one thing, to honestly represent the car as a rebody, =
but quite another when some poor sole will get stuck with, granted a =
COOL car but at a high price for what it is...

I would rather not say the name of the seller, as to prevent any legal =
action or threats (as per my atty's suggestion), but I feel strongly =
that we need to get this out in the open..
As a disclaimer, I will say that I am not a qualified or certified Tiger =
Tach person, and my opinion regarding this matter is an opinion, =
BUT----BUYER BEWARE...In the Los Angeles west side area...Need I say =
more..

Thanks for your time, and Happy Tiger Trails to all, safe Holidays for =
all to come, and see you all in BIG BEAR next June O.K.

See Ya'                           =
