Derek, It sounds to me like you have come on to a great find. It may never be a high priced museum piece, but it sure sounds like it is worth resurecting. The early 289 should be a direct bolt in rep

Negative camber within reason, mabey 1 1/2 degrees, will not have a great affect on steering effort. I suspect that the pile of shims in your front end also give you a lot of positive caster, that wi

I love my Sunbeam, but I am not so blinded by love that I do not see that the Tigers & Alpines have the most collision sensitive fuel tanks that I have seen on a semi-modern car. By comparison the M

Tim, I'd be hesitant to add a rear sway bar with an otherwise stock suspention, the car has a lot of rear roll stiffness already, that's why it's so easy to lift & spin the inside rear wheel in corne

Mark, 3/4" sounds like a problem to me, my car has almost no noticeable play, I think in the Tigers your hand on the wheel serves as the steering damper, & with that much play you can't dampen out th
