Seems like a lot for a car that needs almost everything.

How about the car guys that say never buy the mechanics car because it's the last one to get any maintenance

Did Tigers have the same battery boxes as Alpines behind the passenger seat even though the battery was located in the trunk? I thought the second pipe in the dual exhaust arrangement was routed through where the battery box would have been located.

Tigers still had the door, but there was no battery box installed. Instead, that's where the electric fuel pump was located.... at least that was how mine was set up. I used to open that door and watch the rear spring get wound up when I'd goose it!

Thats the setup on all mki and mkia Tigers.

The mkii had a different rear deck pressing with no hole for a battery box and the pump relocated to the spare wheel well

No connection or relation to the seller , just saw it looking for something else & NOT looking for a Tiger , but ,
If someone is ….seems to me from the pics , the ‘65 Tiger w/ rusty Rockers , listed on Daytona Beach C L Auto Parts
for $11,500 seems a better deal than all these dollars for all this work ….IMO .

The seller claims it's one of Norm Miller's old cars?
