Don't know for sure... 1967 Sunbeam Tiger with a ford small block (perhaps,a 260 or 289)?

Nice wheels!
 
Either a tiger or alpine.

I'll ask Maxwell Smart, or 99.
Are those real minilites or panasports?
I have a set of minilites for sale cheap.
Wait, gotta go, the cone of silence decends.

Good job guys. 1966 Sunbeam Tiger. 15" Panasports...

Hi all just been busy with 1st of year stuff!
The car is ready and all the paperwork is in to SCCA (thanks Bill) Been resealing the old Centerlines this week ready for the new? BFG's thanks joe Craven so should be out in April or May
 
Glenn. Get with it! ITB needs some cars, I think we've scared off the cheaters, now we just need some more real racers. When and where was your last race?
Cheers.

Hey John, Our last race was way back in 4/97 at Holtville in Chri's Rabbit when it decided to become a Molotouv cocktail with me in it!! Have tested the Pinto twice once w Speedtrail and once w Dave Turners group at Holtville Lobster
 
John, The Rabbit is no more it was parted out. Chris saved all the go fast goodies and wants to build another car ITC or ITB but for now he is working out of town. He is SCCA current so he wants to race the pinto too! The engine and trans are all freshed up and we did not have any problems in testing.. You know Holtville if it is going to fall off it will there. later Lobster
 
Hey John did u ever race at Carlsbad, the access road broke trailers, and the snack bar was a small shed with one guy and a microwave. Talk about a dump!!! Later Glenn

Also are u still running the 2002' and the ITS cars?
 
Glenn. Crashed my '72 Capri backwards into one of those sand filled earthmover tires at Carlsbad, I've never seen a track that was as hard on brakes as Carlsbad!!
Sold the 2002.
I'm racing an its BMW e36 325is. An awsome car!! We race at Button Willow next weekend, come on out.
John
