Tracking down the early Miles and Shelby Alpine conversions can be done easily

Getting to those intimately involved in the production of the Tiger becomes
more difficult, as many have moved on from this world, including Mr.Garrad and
Mr. Miles (if I'm not mistaken. If I'm wrong, please refer to Mark Twain's
quote relative to rumors of demise etc. etc.). Not an impossible task, but one
which would require a little effort and detective work.
