     I have an original Tiger. I am second owner, acquired car in 1985. 
Removed and refreshed drive train, Paint work was dull so refinished in 
Spies Hecker lacquer.Kept color close to original. Replaced carpet, replaced 
seat foams and suspension. Reworked suspension with new bush and dampers. 
Replaced gaiters, cleaned and relubricated steering. Replaced soft top. 
Replaced seals on body, Reworked brakes and booster used Dot 5. Repaired 
exhaust pipe inlets. Replaced exhaust system with Tiger Tom's excellent 
parts. Repainted and sealed undercarriage and body. Used Loctite rust killer 
and Waxoyl to preserve. Kept car as original as I could including 2 barrel 
carburetor. I enjoy driving the car. It is a survivor.  Thanks,  Gary
