Hey, Tom:

With regards to raising the coverage on our Tigers...I just did this 
morning!!!!!  Of course, I've just finished that huge project on mine and it 
needed to be raised anyway.  It does appear that Tigers are finally becoming 
seriously collectible, which is a double-edged sword of sorts, I suppose.  I'm 
just glad I've got mine!!!

BTW...the car in question appeared to still be wearing its original paint under 
the hood.  It looked to me like the shade of green on the body was a bit 
lighter than what was in the engine compartment.  It also had an aftermarket 
steering wheel and, from what I could tell, an incorrect amp gauge, too.  
Considering all of this, I was pretty surprised to see it bring that kind of 
money.
