Same deal here in FLA. My '65 Tiger is, according to FLA DMV title a 1966
"Roots"
"Rdstr", which I assume means a "Rootes Roadster". Funny thing is another Tiger
that I have seen is a 1966 Mk1 but reads 1966 "SunB" "Cnvt" on the title.
Guess it depends what the person processing the papers felt like doing.
