Just a side note...While the Pacific Tiger Club IS Rootes Specific, it
is not a Tiger specific. Being a Former member of this fine club, My 65
series IV Alpine was greeted with the same respect as the Tigers were.
And was courted to rejoin the club when I was working on my 65 Imp. I
may be rejoining the club here soon.....If my trading goes well!
Well, that was my point.....I still have the my unused PTC window
sticker from 1977.
