What continues to amaze me is that a lot of the 'significant' Tigers have
survived to this day, and generally in good shape, too. At this point their
importance to the Tiger community is well known, so it's unlikely that they
will be discarded or forgotten, but twenty and thirty years ago a lot of
them were just used (or used-up) cars, and it would have taken just one
owner's decision to not store the car for another year or to part it out,
and then this car or some of the others would have been lost forever.

Chances are that the eBay seller is not going to recover his "investment",
but hopefully it will go to a buyer who appreciates the car for what it is,
and can give it the attention and care that it's due.
