When it comes to putting a Tiger together that was taken apart by someone else, it's quite nice to have some help from friends. I'm fortunate to have some of the best.

You can expect some write-ups soon in Tiger Tales.

Buck,
You are going to let him go home for Christmas????
 
Doug made it back to Dayton Saturday night. However if it were up to me, I'd wire him up with an electronic ankle bracelet that allowed him to range only as far as the In & Out Burger stand a couple blocks away and keep him here until both cars are done.

Doug's plan for this trip was to scout out the jobs and tell us what pieces we need to round up. Once all the goodies are ready for him he'll again head west. The temps were in the low to mid seventies which he said is almost too warm. I hope to see him back in February or March when the weather will be more to his liking.

I hope to then get AF-4 together while Tom Sakai hopes to get a white Tiger of his assembled.

As I mentioned, I plan on taking some notes and plan on writing up some of what I learn from Doug. However learning from Doug is like trying to take a drink out of a fire hose. I can only take in a very tiny percentage. While I am certainly learning a heck of a lot more about Tigers from Doug, the process is also teaching me a lot of humility as I now begin to understand how little I really know.

Buck,

Buck,
Now you know why my wife has a favorite phrase when Doug has one of her cars. She just says " Fix It" . He has his ways. You've seen the results.
 
Awesome

Maybe the ankle bracelet should have larger range as only Home Depot is in the parking lot next to in and out. Look forward to seeing the nuts and bolts work.

Buck,
Doug requires a lot of coffee so make sure you have plenty on hand.

These two guys might have some knowledge of Sunbeams

Never much for the limelight; a stoic reclusive Nor'East curmudgeon fer sure. Will be visiting Smitty in Sandy Eggo this wintah and will have my grandson take a photo of the two of us in his clutter. Just to prove there is a carcass to go with the voice. . . . .

Smitty, DON'T GOoooooo!:eek:

He can't leave until all my projects are done (never). Besides, his affection for the local In & Out burger will keep him close. The family properties up north will stay vacant.
