Micheal King, At the begining of this thread i asked that my fathers car be kept seperate from this discussion, as at some point in the future the full story of his ex works car should be told. So now i'm whining kicking and screaming am i ? Really? My father very almost lost his life in that accid...

Are yes but there lies another tale. Shelby himself made continuation GT350 convertables from base model bodies. Hardly original GT 350's but thay are accepted as such. He's also done continuation Cobra's in fibreglass? carbon, and used Kirkham's also. none built by AC at Thames Ditton. Shelby's pa...

My E Type had a brand new body from Martin Robeys and never went down the line at Jaguars. It was still an E Type and sold for top money. No one in any of the Jag clubs viewed it as a fake and most wished their cars had such a good shell :) Ash your example has been covered in regards to heritage s...

Peter,

On the plate lamps might be the switch to the dual small lamps on the plate VS the single larger glass one mounted in the recess for the trunk (boot) push button.

michael, my alpine has a lot of tiger panels on it and the blue series 5 was a MK2 shell. that means the values of the cars would be much higher by your reasoning. Bob.. Hypothetically.. if you had taken a MKII tiger and then put an alpine tunnel/running gear in it.. made a battery hole and box the...

In the case of this MKII there are several questions. 1. How much of the original Tiger shell is left? 2. How much of the MKII specific body has been lost (different scenario to even a stock mKI/MKIA) 3. Has the car been reparied/will it be restored so that it is safe to drive? I will start by sayin...

Nothing to do with hardtops, the LRX designation appeared on all the alpines in the states as well. All the USA delivered Tigers cary the LRX designation and they didnt all have hardtops.

Thanks Tony and Brad, The car was in the display area behind the pits with some rather more exotic company.. i was so honoured and surprised at the attention the Tiger drew. http://thumb10.webshots.net/t/81/81/8/95/78/2119895780054462410TzzYKN_th.jpg http://thumb10.webshots.net/t/90/90/4/38/63/28184...

I will post some photos in the next few days, and a video or two. The parade was originally for SI-3 Alpines with wire wheels... but that was always going to be a stretch to get 27 cars, so it opened up to all alpines/tigers with wires or alloys. It was quite a special day for sunbeams. There was al...
