Ford produced both stickers. The Sunbeam or Rootes LTD sticker on one valve cover and the smaller Product of Ford Motor Company was place on the other valve cover. The Sunbeam and Rootes LTD sticker could be the one listed in the Parts List ? 6100161 C4JZ-6404-B Engine Name Plate. The smaller sticker is not listed as a separate part number. Sometimes the Sunbeam sticker was placed on the other valve cover, for the US market that is the passenger side. I can only guess the smaller sticker was placed somewhere on the left valve cover. Attached is a picture I found that shows its position on the right side valve cover. I do not have a picture of the smaller sticker on the left valve cover.

Ad says the engine is numbers matching, it does have the original T12KA sticker on the valve cover. It actually looks pretty good but like you know, the lower rockers and the rear wheel well area back by the spring shackel looks questionable. Looks restorable, $18K seems good but if you can't do the metal work yourself, it might cost $$$. I have one in similar condition (except no rust and its more dissassembled) that I have been trying to sell for $18K for a widow. . Tigers are great cars, and this is a local car! Great bay area STOA club support. I am just east of Sacramento myself and am selling a pile of parts if you need any.

What really concerns me is the rear inner fender wellsthat just did not feel right. I need to pull the wheels off tomorrow and get a good look. CL listing:?

But I don't know if that means #399 was vinyl and #400 was wood, or #400 was vinyl and #401 was wood. Regardless that could have been changed. More a notation on #400 than a sign of originality. There should be an indent for the generator in the inner fender panel (the picture doesn't show well enough to tell). I didn't notice the hold down anchors for the battery in the trunk (maybe just bent or broken?). Also check to see that there was never an indication a battery box was welded in under the hatch behind the passenger seat. Other things like welding methods are the domain of TAC inspectors to comment on. Also noticed no fan shroud (you might ask if they have that). Otherwise the strut hats, the spare mount, the coolant container, the exhaust X member modifications appear germane to a Tiger. I hope it all works out to your liking.

The engine is painted red: note the block in this picture and the oil pan in another. The engine has likely been removed from the car at some time. There's at least a 50% chance that the engine was swapped for another (non numbers matching) at this time. Valve covers are likely original but an original number on a valve cover does not a numbers-matching engine make.

He asked for the number on the rear end of my Tiger!!! Congratulations on your purchase of a kitty. If you need any restoration advice, this is the place to ask. Not knowing if you are Tiger Knowledgeable or not, I will share my restoration experience: Jerry Porsche, Eric Gibeaut, Randy Willett, Curt Meinel, Rick Mccloud, Rob Guerra and Norm Miller assisted me with parts, information, and suggestions in the restoration of mine. Rick is with Sunbeam Specialties and Curt is with Classic Sunbeam. I have no idea of how many thousands of dollars Jerry saved me. I was paying someone to restore mine. When I told Jerry the amount of money I had paid so far, he was adamant that I get it out of there. My Tiger had zero floorboard rust. It had some in the rocker panels. If I recall correctly, I picked up replacement panels from Rob Guerra. My brake booster was rebuilt by Randy Willett. I bought stainless steel brake lines from Classic Tubing and they fit perfectly. Trust me, you definitely want your brakes to operate flawlessly. My Dad gave me the Tiger the weekend before he passed. I knew the restoration process was going to be a bit pricey. Jerry asked me if I was going to drive it a lot and my response was a emphatic yes. Well, I ended up spending $17,000 on a paint job and now I am afraid to drive it. So kind of keep that in mind during your restoration process. I didn't want a Trailer Queen, but now I have one. You can reach out to me and I will share any information, knowledge or tidbits I know. Good Luck!!!

The way to tell what engine it is is to pull the starter and look at the casting number. A 260 or a 302 5.0 can be dressed the same. The only matching number is a build date stamped into a small boss on the block in front of the driver side head. Engine swaps in Tigers are almost universal.

The engine is painted red: note the block in this picture and the oil pan in another. The engine has likely been removed from the car at some time. There's at least a 50% chance that the engine was swapped for another (non numbers matching) at this time. Valve covers are likely original but an original number on a valve cover does not a numbers-matching engine make. > > Will - 382001570 > Tigers at embarqmail.com > > >> On Mon, Jan 10, 2022 at 12:07 PM Allan Ballard via Tigers wrote: >> Thanks :) >> >> Sent from my iPhone >> >>> On Jan 10, 2022, at 11:05 AM, Ron Fraser wrote: >>> >>> Yes, that appears to be the factory ?T? fitting. >>> >>> >>> >>> Ron Fraser >>> >>> >>> >>> From: Tigers On Behalf Of Allan Ballard via Tigers >>> Sent: Monday, January 10, 2022 11:01 AM >>> To: D or G at sbc >>> Cc: J Clark ; tigers at autox.team.net >>> Subject: Re: [Tigers] I just put down a deposit on B9471400 >>> >>> >>> >>> Interesting ad and pictures. >>> >>> >>> >>> One shows the heater hose on the passenger side.

My Tiger had Beam belts when I purchased it in 1977. Not sure if they were dealer installed. They are American made, so may have been installed by Rootes in New York. Beam seatbelts are a classic flip design as used in airplanes and are still available today in multiple colors. SeatBeltsPlus carry them. I got new ones from JC Whitney years ago. Kangol seatbelts are the magnetic buckle type. They were listed by Rootes in the Avenger/Cricket parts book. Britex belts were used in many British cars. They were of the push button type and listed for the 69 Alpine. Irvin belts were made by the Irvin Parachute Company. Not sure what Rootes vehicle these were listed for.

They were mostly a light grey colour, and had a irvin badge attached to the buckle. post '63 they also had black belts and i assume as a cost saving measure there was a sticker with Rootes Group and the irvin badge on the buckle. For the sunbeam spec the short one next to the console had a plastic sleeve to keep it more upright i assume and easier to grab, The Rootes specific ones actually also had a rootes label stitched to the base of the belts near the anchor points as opposed to the generic Irvin belts label. attached some pics below. USA dealers obviously would install local brands to make some extra coin... and as mentioned when chrysler came along and on late sales Britax and Kangol belts would sometimes make their way onto the cars.

I hope you can gain some information from these photos. My impression from having ?eyes-on? is that there is no Hammertone and the color is a silver tint. The color reminds me of Ford?s ?Argent? paint which has a bit of brightness- a bit more than a satin tone. I?m sure you will note the black paint; I guess a prior owner applied that at some time in the history of this GT Tiger. I took a close look at the black paint with a magnifying glass, and then scraped my fingernail on the paint to see which is the base layer; it is clear that the black was sprayed over the silver (?Argent?) The original Ford P/N was a C7AZ- type; now Ford sells it under PM-19K207-AA I hope all this is helpful.

I don?t think they were satin. I kind of think of all the paints on the Sunbeams as being a bit off ?gloss.? Kind of like they were painted on a foggy day. Oh, wait ? Now don?t get me wrong. They?ve been able to make things super glossy for a long time. I just don?t think that the Sunbeams tended to be that way, and the odd bits of black here and there were even less. And surfaces were not necessarily glass smooth, which also made for the paint to not have a high gloss look. But I must admit I didn?t buy my Sunbeam new. It was 8 years old when we got it. So lots of time to deteriorate. But still, the stuff in the trunk, without sun, in Southern California, were probably pretty close. > On Jan 17, 2022, at 1:27 PM, JAMES ARMSTRONG via Tigers wrote: > > Jim D, > Thanks for your answer.

I believe the paint is original - what?s left of it. The paint appears to be alligatoring and falling off. The pictures were taken with a DSLR camera using natural light from a window to the right. There is no ?hue? from an incandescent or florescent bulb, or any light bulb.. Perhaps someone can tell if the finish was hammertone.

It was also peeling off just like Allan's. My re-sprays back in the day looked pretty much like that but also peeled like original in just a few years (or less). I see concours TIgers with a MUCH more pronounced hammer from modern paint and they just are not right. Sears! I got my NOS exhaust system from Sears in 1975, still on my car! So that air cleaner is from 1977. Seems like an improved one piece version of the original three piece filter. I happen to know where there is a small stash of I think identical filters, brand new.

I hope you can gain some information from these photos. My impression from having ?eyes-on? is that there is no Hammertone and the color is a silver tint. The color reminds me of Ford?s ?Argent? paint which has a bit of brightness- a bit more than a satin tone. I?m sure you will note the black paint; I guess a prior owner applied that at some time in the history of this GT Tiger. I took a close look at the black paint with a magnifying glass, and then scraped my fingernail on the paint to see which is the base layer; it is clear that the black was sprayed over the silver (?Argent?) The original Ford P/N was a C7AZ- type; now Ford sells it under PM-19K207-AA I hope all this is helpful.

This housing came off a Mk1 Tiger and went on a shelf exposed to the elements where It sat for years - until I bought it at a ?yard sale? for 60 bucks, along with other Tiger parts. I believe the paint is original - what?s left of it. The paint appears to be alligatoring and falling off. The pictures were taken with a DSLR camera using natural light from a window to the right.? There is no ?hue? from an incandescent or florescent bulb, or any light bulb.. Perhaps someone can tell if the finish was hammertone. The color must be the factory color as toned by the years and weather. -Allan Ballard Mk1a Tiger Series I Alpine(V6, T5) -Atlanta On Jan 17, 2022, at 11:13 AM, Ron Fraser via Tigers wrote: Bob ???????????????

I bought it many years ago from BAP Geon. BAP is still in business but they don't seem to have anything for a Tiger. It's likely that both BAP and Sears got their elements from GUD. That's the GUD logo and the filter type, AG364, on the element. All the aftermarket elements back then had integral gaskets, whereas the original filter had two separate gaskets that fit into the upper and lower plates of the filter housing. I had been saving the element to crown my Tiger's engine after restoration. When I went to put it on, I found that It had shrunk! Maybe I need to come up with some kind of stretcher to get the element back to size.

This housing came off a Mk1 Tiger and went on a shelf exposed to the elements where It sat for years - until I bought it at a ?yard sale? for 60 bucks, along with other Tiger parts. I believe the paint is original - what?s left of it. The paint appears to be alligatoring and falling off. The pictures were taken with a DSLR camera using natural light from a window to the right There is no ?hue? from an incandescent or florescent bulb, or any light bulb.. Perhaps someone can tell if the finish was hammertone.

I just went back to Amazon and looked for other jackets from a2z and found a nice looking blue jacket that is only available in the small size and there are only 3 left.

There are two (2) brackets that are in the very far end corners of the truck that receive the Dzus fasteners on the Tiger trunk false floor. There two screws per bracket that fix them to the holes in the metal work to retain them. My holes were painted over. Question is: does anyone know the screw type and length for this application? I can run a tap through the paint but first I need to know what screw is needed here. Help ! Jim Armstrong -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I called Rick at Sunbeam Specialties, and he says that He has only ever received perhaps two calls to get a plug for that hole. He doesn?t have a specific plug for that. The hole is about an inch in diameter or so. I wonder what other people have used as a plug in that location?

Mcmaster-Carr has a great variety of plugs available, so I just measured the hole and ordered what I needed.
