Alan,
That original throw out bearing must be worth more than a mere $500....
Check the ad in the current Hemmings for an "original Tiger 260 and top
loader four-speed". Going to the seller's website,
http://www.larrykay.com/64FalconR/index.html, I see the price is only
$7,850. Of course, that includes the '64 Ranchero is which the engine and
transmission are now installed, along with a six-cylinder engine and
automatic that could be put in the Ranchero when the Tiger engine and
transmission are taken out.
I e-mailed the seller and all he has to indicate that these are Tiger
components is the Rootes engine sticker on the valve cover and a story
from the former owner that another former owner somewhere along the line
wrecked his Tiger and moved the engine and trans to his Ranchero.
