I have always held the belief that part of the fun and enjoyment of the old 
car hobby was the search for and anticipation of receiving much needed parts. 
This is not a one week, crash course hobby, where the vehicle can go to MAACO 
for paint two hours after prepping and be returned three hours after that. To 
do the job right takes time and patience. Obviously, irritated Chuck in Texas 
does not understand this.

I, like many others, have dealt with Kurt on numerous occasions and have 
found both friendly and helpful. His knowledge of Sunbeams and his resources 
for odd and rare parts is excellent. His willingness to deal with fussy and 
finicky customers is more than one would expect from any other type of sales 
person.

Like one of the other respondents said, sell your Tiger and buy any one of 
the modern look-alike econ-boxes. You apparently do not understand or 
appreciate the efforts of a few to satisfy many.
