What worries me in these times of environmental change and the ever
increasing cost of petrol is how many tigers will have their transmission
tunnels cut out and removed so that owners can fit 1725cc SV alpine motors
and overdrive transmissons..

if these are done well enough we may never know that the car was once a
Tiger.. the owner will simply pass it off as an orginal alpine with
overdrive! Anyway.. i am going to get back to converting my early MKI leaf
spring cobra to AC Bristol spec.. :-)
