Jim=E2=80=99s work to document Tigers and Alpines is extraordinary.

A library of supplemental photographs from original cars could only help how=
ever, deepening the substances of  his primary resource.

A while ago at a show I met a couple with an unmolested, original Mk II Tige=
r.

They offered its use for just such purposes as we=E2=80=99ve discussed here.=


Unfortunately I lost their card.

Other opportunities exist.
