Trunk racks. All sorts of trunk racks from cars are out there. I believe
Moss Motors carries them. The issue is if you are looking for one that
fits the Alpine holes. I had an Alpine that had a chrome rack back there
which looked fine. Except when you lifted the trunk, and looked at where
the nuts held the rack on, they did not come through those 4 nice holes
Rootes put in the second layer of metal. So, I guess how accurate you want
it to be is up to you.
Narrower rear end. I can't answer specifics. However, I recall hearing
that at that time, it was vogue for a number of cars, not just Rootes, to
have the narrower track in the rear. Maybe there are details to be found
from other car owners. I wonder if Tigers have the same narrower rear end.
I'll check with my dad.
Draining fuel tanks. Even though the tanks have already been drained,
there is a drain plug in the later dual tanks. I believe it is on the
right side tank on the bottom.
