DESCRIPTION

This uniquely original & unrestored 1966 Tiger Mk 1A was sold new by Lewis Motors in Shaker Heights, Ohio, and remained with its original owner until June of 2011. The current owner acquired the car in February of 2012.

The car is finished in its original Carnival Red with black vinyl upholstery and is powered by its numbers-matching 260ci V8 paired with a Toploader four-speed manual transmission. Features include a black vinyl soft top, a black top boot, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, Jaeger instrumentation, and a dual exhaust system. The interior, seat covers, dash, gauges, steering wheel and carpeting are all original. The mats have been replaced in period & the original top is in excellent condition with no rips or tears. The rear window is currently out but a factory-correct embossed replacement is included. The spare, tool kit, jack and trunk boards are all original, along with rare Aeramic wiper blades.

Documentation confirming the provenance of this incredibly rare Tiger includes the original bill of sale, service records confirming the mileage as original, Rootes warranty booklet, Owners Manual, Shop Manual and Dealer's Key Fob. There is a TAC Certificate documenting the car as real Tiger & showing "Original Rivets" on the Data Tag.

Service performed by the current owner included overhauling the front suspension, rebuilding the brake booster and clutch master cylinder and replacing various brake components along with the fuel pump. The 1968-dated Koni shocks were dealer installed, checked and reinstalled. This car currently rides on a set of rare, 13" Halibrand magnesium bolt on race wheels. Tires are currently Dunlop Race L65's 5.50 x 13.

This Sunbeam Tiger is now offered with a Sunbeam Tiger Owners Association Certificate of Authenticity, a 1968 invoice, manufacturer's literature, service records, a tonneau cover, a spare rear windscreen, and a clean Arizona title [Actual Mileage] listing the car as a 1967 model.
