Jim I thought the best part was the frame off restoration and the Tiger
history lesson he gave to go with the car. Lots of things wrong- small stuff,
like side moulding, dash, no cubby light and a tach hanging down- guess the
stock one doesnt work. It also states the LOST vin was replaced after someone
in the Tiger community provided paper work it was the car matching the given
vin while using the numbers from the rearend and tranny to backup their claim.
I didnt see a pic of the Georiga provided VIN plate but find it unusual a car
is issued a VIN plate replacing the lost one. I was told that couldnt be done
as it had been discussed many times and once the VIN plate is lost you are
just screwed. Very curious how this was managed. It is nice and black with
inormation that seems like they are trying to convince someone what they say
is true. IMO of course.

I'm looking at a Tiger on e-bay.

or item# 180462584756 if the link doesn't work.
The ad states it has an 'original factory production patent plate' from
Pressed Steel and a link to a pic.
