Thanks for looking. I have lowered the asking price to $90,000 OBO. The first two photos in this thread are not my car. The group of 7 photos following them are the correct ones.

John,

Posting some photos might help generate some more interest. If you are really chasing the higher end of the market recent mercum aucxtions indicate it would be worth lobbing in there. If your car is in top condition it "should" bring your asking price given recent sales.

michael,
if you want to see photos of the car, go to sunbeamtiger.co.uk classified section and you can pull up many photos of this car. it's a very nice car. well done and well detailed. makes me proud to say that the wife's alpine was done by the same shop the same year. if someone wants an immaculate car this is it!

Bob,

Is this the car? Lists as £38,000

If this is the car, does it still have the air cleaner, wheel arch and sill mouldings and the orginal steering wheel, they are not on the car in the photos.

John,

Thanks for uploading the pics and clarifying which car is yours... that is one VERY nice Tiger.. and MKII on top of it.. given its the same $ as being asked for the MKII here in AU.. i know which i'd be buying.. your car has some nice options and is a legit car.. so yours would be money well spent.

One thing i noticed is the rear LAT70's.. there is a very deep dish on them.. are they a 7" on the back or they have a different offset. I knwo these wheels were comon to a few cars (corvairs, datsuns etc.. ) so i guess you could get a LAT 70 in a wider width or with a greater offset. Its a nice touch.. squares the track and gives it a good aggresive look while appearing correct.

Thank you for all took the time to look. The car has been sold to a discriminating collector who is putting it in his collection of 20+ other high-end collector cars.

I realize it was probably a slower sale than you wanted, BUT you had a fantastic, 'top tier' car, and it takes a special person to appreciate.

I'm glad for BOTH of you. That car deserves a place among high end cars.

Congratulations! What's next for you?

john,
now that there is only one tiger left in the garage, what are you going to buy to fill the open bay?

:DTwenty-nine years ago when I bought my first Tiger (my Mk-Ia which I still have) I was looking to buy and restore a C2 Corvette. However, I decided Corvettes were like assholes, everybody has one. So, Tiger it was. However, the desire has never gone away for a C2 coupe and I have been looking for a year. Plus, I am 29 years older and not getting any younger and it is time to address my bucket list. I have found a 1965 Corvette coupe that is fully option loaded, including factory air conditioning and I am flying to California to pick it up and drive it cross country with my 18 year old son, Ian.
