20 Muscle Cars That Made History
No definitely not getting into the 12's on the pizza cutters. If you look in the top picture that tiger has Panasports which is the wheel of choice due to the narrower track width in the rear due to the Dana. Believe it or not the rear ends came out of the international harvesters. Hey whatever works I guess?lol. It's been a great little car. It's sad that the prices have skyrocketed over the last few years, in the fact that most guys that are buying them are snobby assholes which makes going to tiger events no fun anymore. Like that everywhere you go I guess. Cars been in the family 40 years so its a family member. Found it under a tree in a junkyard in San Antonio Texas ready for the crusher. 5 years later its 95 percent done. Could use a new paint job but its still really presentable, I'm just concentrating on my darts for now. If you think about it Rootes Group was bought out by chrysler in 1966 for the 67 year but they ended up shutting the company down because they weren't going to sell a British car with a ford engine at a chrysler dealership. The 263 wouldn't fit because it was too wide. If you look at the late series 5 alpines 66-67 and tigers they have the chrysler penastar on the lower passenger fender. Kinda cool.I'm no expert on these Sunbeam Tiger's.
Not sure if you could get into the 12.90's with the stock 13" x 4.5" wheel-rimmed tires
and running 3.73 Gears in the Dana 44 with the 289/306 HP Cobra-Kit.
