- Isn't that really the issue here? If a rusted out tiger is rebuilt fron an Alpinse body shell, it's an Alger. Where is the line between a restored Tiger and one of those fradulent Alpine conversions?

- The idea is to build a street/AP autocrosser. I'd plan on putting a complete custom rear end under the car - 4 link or something. I'd like to do a tubular front end, but couldn't afford it. If I didn

- I agree with your premise. Why hack up a good car to build a custom one-off when you can start with a lower cost alternative. But!! I have one major issue with your statement. Unless you represent t

- I've already checked with the SCCA on this. If I run a Tiger crossmember, the car will run legally as a Tiger. If it has the Alpine crossmember, or anything other than stock (like something custom)
