    I knew a guy that had one of those. He lived in the neighborhood my parents lived in back in the late 70's early 80's. Same color too...

    With the seven-speed Sportshift II paddle-operated transmission it delivers an unforgettable driving experience.

    I have a soft spot for 2 seat roadsters.
    Here's a 1935 Triumph Gloria Southern Cross. Notice the split windscreens.

    Thanky, those little Tigers really reminds me of some of cars (Triumphs) in the sixties that got me into high gears.
    Also, some other similar (box~like little cars) just use to make my heart go flip~flop lol

    I'm more into bluish~greenish or purplish, greyish~silver not bad.

    Nice close up on that last pic :)

    Between 1966 and 1973... not sure the year of the one I posted... That style of bumper would make it one of the later models. (Safety and all that crap :rolleyes: )
