He drove it less than 4,000 miles during that time and put thousands of dollars upgrading and maintaining his pride and joy (as collection of receipts show). I (another elderly gentleman) have owned the car for 10 years and have driven about 8000 miles during that time. A major restoration was done in 2017 with bare metal paint including hardtop in correct green. This included replacing the windshield and hardtop quarter windows. The paint remains nearly perfect with small chip at soft top metal cover. There was a nickel size chip on side of drivers front fender (from inadvertently bumping with a tool in garage).This was professionally repaired and repainted in perfect matching color and is difficult to see. There is no known rust or structural filler. Chrome parts were replaced and the bumpers remained very good and did not require rechroming. Included are the original working jack and lug wrench.                                                                      I also have a never installed roll bar, the original wheels and hubcaps as well as other miscellaneous items that will go with the Tiger. I had a Pertronix electronic ignition installed but it interfered with the tachometer. I removed it and had the dual points etc replaced. I will include the Pertronix.  I also have 50 years of receipts to include. I have owned several vintage British as well as some Italian sports cars and this is by far the most enjoyable one. Im just getting older and moving on to other things.
