Folks,
        Thanks for all the support from the experts on
criminal law of the Tiger.  I obviously need help to 
determine when I became the criminal.  Therefore I am
going to list a few items I changed on my Tiger II 
that are not the absolute original factory parts on
my Tiger II.
  I beg all you Tiger experts to examine the short list

        I have made a few other changes as well, but I figure
that the experts in criminal law will find enough crimes in
the above list to abolish me from having any involvement
with Tigers from now on, as I will probably have over
three consecitive life terms from the above items.
I also admit that I did many of the above items
several times on my Tiger II which I aquired in 1969.
(Hell, I even had Goodyear snow tires on once!)
        I just hope and pray that there is no other
Tiger owner that has made any of the above changes
to their Tiger.  I prefer to have my own cell.
