In 1968 when I went back to Nortell to get some 'factory'
parts her still had a green 1966 MK IA sitting in the back
of the showroom. No one wanted it since Chrysler had
dumped the line. He finally sold the car in late 1968 as
a '1968 Sunbeam Tiger' since IL allowed the title to reflect
the sale date not when the car was built. Very common
since most car's model years started in October. So
someone has a genuine 1968 Sunbeam Tiger in the eyes
of the IL Secretary of State. The only proper way to
list our cars is the build date per the BON.
