The  earlier 1925 Tiger can be seen on TigersUnited.com, page 3 of the

The  original story was edited from "Sunbeam Supreme. AU"
and is accredited.  http://www.sunbeam.org.au/   "History of the Sunbeam  
Marque"
and is stated as being in the National Motor Museum at the time  of 
original publication.  If it has been moved,
this information  is not available to me. Please cite references for any

The 1925 Sunbeam 'Tiger' has been in a private museum in California  
(Sausalito(sp?)?)  for roughly 10 years. It was vintage-raced as recently  as 
2003 in 
Germany, where it suffered engine failure.  It was displayed  sans motor at 
SUNI IV in Utah in 2004.
