Big 50 for B9471538

Purchased right after I attended TU 35 in Big Bear. Pictures attached.
Met a lot of good CAT Tiger folks there, TE/AE here, and a bunch in the middle.
Last registered in CA in 1983, Wedgewood Blue and in need of a motor transplant.
Almost there, trying to find or fabricate the last remaining items to make the engine complete. Stayed stock 260 with some LAT upgrades (F4B, Dual Dist, HIPO cam, Fan, Stock Air Cleaner).
Should be road ready after the New Year.

Happy Holidays to all,

Well Happy Birthday.......looks like a nice complete survivor. Will you repaint it or just clean it up and drive as is? I like the patina'd look.

Want to drive ASAP

As you can tell by my signature have 2 Tigers, but only way I could afford them was to buy non runners. They are both rust free CA cars (I'm originally from Ventura County), so no rust repair, just need to get them back together.
Problem is time to do it w/work, family, Master's, & most of all money.
This one is pretty original, so will fix/replace mechanicals and put on the road as soon as possible.
Will tell the story of other on it's BDay.

Happy Birthday! No better present than to get your car running again after a 30 year nap.
