Here's what's under the hood on that Sunbeam Tiger I saw - beautiful!

I still think the Roadster is better looking - but no V8 monster :-)

Some other pix from the meet-up here:

Welcome Deuce,

Hmm... I didn't get an email from you :-( Please try again.

The Coffee and Cars meetup is the first Saturday of the month. But maybe a better place to meet would be the Z-Club meetings???

I got your message, but I'm not the one you want - I'm not local! I think you wanted to ping Datsun65.

James,
I believe that 3rd Roadster @ C&C 1/8 was my old Sora Blue 1970 1600 now owned by Andy S.

Hi Rick, long time no see - drop me a line next time you "come to town". Dang - I missed talking to Andy at the meet-up! I need to get him that old 4-speed I have laying around.
