ShelbyDude Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 I stole one from the circus, but had to give it back. What, they wouldn't let you keep the little kitty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyGT Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 My neighbor has a beautiful Mk2 that rarely gets driven. The values on these cars has risen much in the last 10 years or so. Anyone have an LAT kit that they are not using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordlandia Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Anyone in the house have a Tiger? I own two Tigers: a Mark II (owned since 1978) and a Mark 1 (since 1979). Pic of my Mark II is attached. Took me 20 years to restore it (was going for the world record for length of Tiger resto). Mark 1 to be restored... won't take 20 years as I'm retired now and have a lot of time to spend on the cars. Did all the work on the Mark II myself except paint. 5.0 roller cam motor. Was running a 3.54 posi... just had it changed out to a 2.88 posi (got tired of 3500 rpm at 70 mph). A real blast to drive.

rheller Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 I owned a '67 MK I when I was in college back in '71. Kept it for three years until I bought a '68 GT500. The Tiger was a sweet little ride. I even had the removable hard top. It gave 20 mpg in town. I could skip gears easily, such as 1st to 3rd. The original owner was a Standard Oil Engineer. He installed a heavy duty clutch and traction bars. It was a kick to access one of the spark plugs through the firewall under the dash. I admit the car ran a little hot during those California summers, and could have benefited from a "hood scoop," but I didn't want to modify its look. I used to eat Triumphs and MGs from stop lights. I tried racing a DeTomaso Pantera once and was, of course, blown away. I recall changing the windshield wiper motor underneath the dash. What a bitch to access; my neck hurt for days. After acquiring the GT500, I had to sell it. Buyer was an overweight, frumpy, young woman and her spouse. I imagine the car is long since history. Great memories, though.

By your user name I'm going to guess you have an ex-rental car along with that Tiger? If so make sure you visit the Dodge area on Team Shelby.

Tiger_Steve Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Hi, Tiger enthusiasts. It seems I ended up with three Ford based products: 1) My 1965 Sunbeam Tiger (BRG), with Carroll Shelby designed V-8, with all running gear from Ford 2) My 2005 Ford Thunderbird (RED) with all running gear from Jaguar 3) My 2011 Ford Edge LTD (RED) made in Canada. Looking for a Ford GT (RED), when I can afford a new garage, and my wife's moving out. Will post some pics, later. I am fairly well known in the Sunbeam Tiger community Tiger_Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobrakidz Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Steve, know of any Tigers for sale? I cannot get on the SVTOA or CAT sites since I am not a member any more. I would even consider trading my 2000 Cobra R for a nice hardtopped Tiger. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
