=EF=BB=BFMayf sent me this note and I wanted to make sure everyone on =
the List
received it.

What I think we need is a photo record from any original owner with an
original Tiger to send photos to the List.

Photos of each Tiger Series would be the goal - B947, B948, B382 and =
B3821.
I also think photos of each Alpine Series would be helpful.

Ron, mine are OEM. Round slot screws where they run on the weather seal =

stud and nut other side through the deck and into the hinge.  None are

Allan
   The photo evidence indicates that the Parts List is not correct.

The fasteners should be natural color, not painted.
The trunk lid would be painted 1st, paint cured then installed.

The March 1963 shows this screw in the Series I & II section for the =
trunk
hinge
2203571    Screw, 1/4" UNF. X 1/2" Special
This screw is also listed for the Series III & IV trunk hinge but the =
word
Special is not there.

This screw # does not show up in the ZY section of the Parts List.

Your pictures look like a large headed Round Screw much like a license =
plate
screw.

I know my trunk hinge fasteners are not original so no help there.
