The woman mentioned below is Sue Kesler. She is a huge Get Smart fan. She
was instrumental in the organization of the Luncheon with Don Adams several
years ago at Van Nuys Airport (Aero 5th Squadron Restaurant) sponsored by CAT,
Don Adams' last public appearance. She also has contact with Barbara Feldon,
who rarely makes any appearances.
The car in question was owned by David Sosna (I know you are reading this!)
from San Diego, and I believe it had the V-6 conversion when he got the car.
Sue bought it about 8 or 9 years ago, maybe longer, and had it painted red and
had a friend in the movie/TV prop business make the machine gun. She did a
really good job making it look like a stock Tiger from outward appearances.

I was working dong some car shot stuff at the TMPCC car show this last
Saturday at the CBS Radford lot and did check out the 'Tiger'. Well it is not
the original car, as were most of the 'movie replicas' that showed. It was a
really nicely done Alpine with a V6 Capri swap from the guy in San Diego that
does them. It did have the functional turret that poped a gun up and some
other Get Smart bits. Was a fun car for sure. The lady (I can't remember her
name) was nice and fun and never tried to pass the car off as a Tiger. Big
Don
Adam's signature on the visor, she was a huge Get Smart fan and that is what
prompted her to do the car ;) I'll post the link when the video goes up.
