Well, I do remember that Tiger bit for sure. And I am unaware of any =
other one-offs, not that I=E2=80=99d ever have researched beyond Tiger =
lore.

I used to have a Tiger. My brother in law=E2=80=99s Alpine looked =
identical at first glance, but that=E2=80=99s where it ended.

I skidded my Tiger on large wet leaves. Hit a stone wall; car was never =
the same again. I was too young/inexperienced/dumb to drive it in the =
first place and too poor to fix it properly afterwards. I often wonder =
about getting another.

I seem to remember that Shelby did a one of conversion of the Sunbeam =
Alpine. This conversion was then again modified by Jensen who also =
performed the final conversion/building of the car.
