First off; this looks like a very nice Tiger no matter what.
The engine must have been painted in the 70's too; should have been
painted black not blue. There are also a couple other odd things on the
engine like the throttle linkage and the valve that looks like its in the
vacuum line to the servo or was I seeing things.
If there is a problem with the engine I would look at that early
style distributor first thing, notice the oil port on the side. They have a
terrible internal wear problem and replacement parts are slim. A later
style distributor might cure some or all of the problem this engine might
have; I say this sight unseen so I could be wrong.

Why would anyone put this in an ad to sell a car - "but may need to look at
a motor rebuild soon. Just speculating"
