?If this car has a T-10, I doubt it is the original transmission. I am
pretty sure T-10s were limited to the first 56 Tigers. Besides the long
shifter (T-10s have the short shifter) this Tiger has square corners on the
bonnet, trunk and doors a feature that came well after ID # 56.
Other than that it does look pretty nice in the photos.
