The long handle Tiger dip stick is a standard Ford part (originally from a=
1962 Fairlane, it was used on early small block Fords until around early 1=
965) with the handle bent to clear the Tiger hood.=20
The short handle (finger pull) Tiger dip stick is the same as the long hand=
le, except Rootes cut off the handle and had it made shorter, this is easy =
to do with a jig (I have done it without any problem)
The tube is a Ford part C2OZ-6754-A, it has to be bent slightly to fit the =
Tiger. Neither are available from Ford, but they are reproductions availabl=
e made for early Mustangs etc.
