Now that I have found one near me I have gotten better at the history of them.
Norm, you might have seen the more common LeMans version with a very distincive
rear roof line.

Carl French
"Clancy" notes he raced against a Tiger version of the Harrington.
I wish my senior memory were better. But, I know that Syd Silverman
owned
one of the factory Tiger coupes & he & his associate Bob raced it for a
number of years in vintage events. The earliest one I can pinpoint was
Watkins Glen 1992. I believe that Syd sold the car last year or year
before. Can't say I've seen in since.
The roof line on the Tiger coupes (again - senior memory.) I think was
more
angled, as if they had used the factory hardtop shape as opposed to the
graceful curve of the Harrington coupes.
