I too have been following this thread. Interesting stuff. If the clocks =
were dealer installed, did they have a LAT number? I=E2=80=99ve never =
seen a clock on the lists of LAT options that I=E2=80=99ve seen. And, I =
wonder what the cost was to have the clock installed. I think it has =
been established that clocks were not that common originally in Tigers =
or Alpines for that matter which makes me wonder if buyers looked at the =
options and decided a 4 bbl was money better spent. Also, if the 3030 =
was indeed never produced, and then was reproduced from legend, that =
would be amazing to me!=20

My thought are it should be 3131/00 for early Tigers and 3131/01 for =
later one. I would like to see a picture of a clapped out 3030/00.
