Tigers and 'Pines
Winter seems to be a month of indoor activity, for those who have winters.
We are very fortunate to have yet another great article for both Sunbeam
Alpines and Tigers.
"Repairing Jaeger and Smiths Speedometers"
Tony Rhoades has agreed to the publication of his exhaustive treatment
of the Smith/Jaeger's mysterious innards in his profound coverage of
this arcane subject, covering the changes in design over the years as
well as many pictures on dismantling. Strange collection of parts.
For the curious and the serious, this is a great article. A PDF version
is also available for download. If you have changed your tires, rear
end, internal mainshaft speedometer drive, end cable gear, or your
speedometer/odometer is just not correct, this is a "must read".
It is located at http://www.TigersUnited.com under the side navigation
bar hot link "Technical Tips" / "Restoration Tips", and is the latest,
and therefore last article listed. Click red Title "Repairing Jaeger and
Smiths Speedometers" Hot link to the article.
For the Navigationally Challenged, the direct link to the Restoration
Tips article listing is:

For those with trouble even with that, (get rid of your computer), here
is the lazy way to the article:

Thank you Tony for sharing with us. Now that your the expert, be
prepared for some mail.
MORE TO COME!
