Jeff,
Yes, the Tiger's history is interesting and there are many on this List who
know quite a bit in this regard; certainly much more me. The Shelby
prototype is owned by Bill Carroll, author of "Tiger, An Exceptional Motor
Car". He lives very near me in San Marcos, CA. He doesn't show the car
often, but did bring it to Tigers United in Eureka. I don't recall him or
his car at Big Bear last year though. I don't know if he has plans for SUNI
this year. I'm guessing not, but maybe someone needs to persuade him to
bring it.
Bo Cheadle now owns the Ken Miles prototype. He has quite a car collection
I understand. He used to subscribe to this List, but we haven't heard from
him for quite a while. I understand Bo is restoring this car, so we are all
interested in how this will turn out. Not a lot of documentation as to
originality of course.
Bob
