Sunbeam Tiger?


My neighbor as a kid gave his oldest son that same car for LSU graduation. He joined the Army and left the car in their garage. 9 months later he was killed in Vietnam. That car sat in that garage for 40 years after that. He kept it spotless and once in a blue moon he would drive it around the neighborhood. He was the last to die in the family including another son my age and I don’t know whatever happened to that car. We all remember when the son got the car ajd I can still see him driving it.

Jaguar’s most iconic model.

Arguably in the Top 10 of all car designs all time.

Based on your exhaust description, it is probably a 1968 Opal GT.

Man I’d love to be the one who was lucky enough to be the second owner.
