There is no argument, other than your own statement: "I don't see the Mk II specific spare tire tie downs and the battery tie down is wrong - .Jim" Apparently I did got the idea that all was not as

On Mk II Tigers they did away with the "bolted hat" that was used on Mk I and Mk IAs and used a couple of straps to hold the spare in place. The straps were attached to brackets/tie downs that were

Thank you for the "hands-on" Mk II information. While I don't know all the TAC criteria, the main one is that it rolled off the assembly line as a Tiger. Putting a Chevy Engine in is allowed. Apprec
