Theo,
Is it the term 'frame off restoration' being applied to a Tiger that raises
suspicion? You know...., like they don't get it that the Tiger doesn't have
a real frame so to speak and as such reveal their lack of integrity. I
guess there is no universal term so may a offer "stripped to the unibody
restoration", or "bare unibody restoration" or something of the sort.
On the other hand maybe they are refering to the fact that a loose lower
A-arm (from the broken fulcrim pin) and a torn loose, weld on traction bar
and panhard rod have been repaired. Hence the term 'frame off restoration.'
:-)
