Actually, he made the second, if you want to look at it that
way. Ian paid Ken Miles to build the first, and they drove it from
LA to San Francisco and back to test the concept before the Shelby
prototype was completed. But I really think we should reserve the
term "Alger" for the creations that have occurred since the end of
Tiger production, because of the value differentials with the
Alpine. The prototypes certainly deserve more respect.
