[Tigers] Tiger Ride

[coolvt at aol.com]

Well the guy at least got the "Tiger" part right, so I didn't bother getting into too much more. But then one of his buddies said, "If this thing is a Ford, why does it have a Chrysler emblem on it?'  Had to give him a little history. They were satisfied and off the 12 Harleys went. They told me they were all NY City fire fighters and EM's and that they do this northern NY ride every year.  Brought back my memories of bike riding .......40+ years of it. Mark

Sounds like a nice drive. I stayed in Shelborne and the went south to the Ticonderoga Ferry while on vacation years ago.

We have an "Expert" at the local Cars & Coffee who stated that the Tiger was originally intended to have a... gee, I can't remember I've heard so many other engines over the years but it wasn't the small block Ford. Does it fall under "Fair Use" (educational) if we copy a page or two of the Book of Norman to educate people?

As in normal,  some of them gravitated over to check out the Tiger. There was apparently one Tiger expert in the group.  When some asked, "What is it?"   The expert's answer was, "One of my favorite cars, an Alpine Tiger."  Never heard that one before.  Mark L
