You are correct, it is an Alpine conversion. Much as I hate saying this, the PROOF is in the vertical spare wheel in the trunk !!!! :-) Steve -- Steve Laifman Editor http://www.TigersUnited.com

As it turns out the vehicle is an Alpine Conversion, but a vertical spare is not "PROOF" of anything but a upright spare.

Chris, I think he is far beyond just being cagey. He states, "Tiger"" is an original Alpine 260 converted to a 302 .... There was a Alpine 260, that was a Tiger, so either way he is selling a hoax. S

The VIN indicates that it started out as a S5 Alpine, and I'd bet that the body tag would be SAL, not JAL, indicating that it was built by Sunbeam instead of Jenson. A couple of months ago at the TE/

Interesting you bring up the sighting of a Tiger with a Series V Alpine rear clip. Is this still considered a true Tiger or is this no different than an Alger? Could this be in an all new category?

When I attended TacFest 2001, Tom Hall made it very clear that replacing a front or rear clip on a Tiger did not make it cease to be a Tiger. You can have a philosophical argument about how much of a

Erich's response is right. Tigers that have been repaired by the front/rear clip replacement are still Tigers and can be successfully TACed. The Tiger with the Alpine rear clip at the Crab Feast in

I would think a true purist would say that if any piece of Alpine sheet metal, especially a clip, is used to restore a Tiger, the car no longer qualifies as a Tiger. It's hard to be just a little bi

John, if that were the case, then quite a few Tigers who have new front clips, would not be Tigers by your definition. The TAC program does not look at replacement clips, as that is not what made a T
