Joey,
As Robin said, the gas tanks corrode from the inside and you'll end up 
with filters full of sludge if you don't deal with it. I had the gas 
tanks and crossover tubes cleaned and recoated by a local radiator shop 
- it cost about $300, but they did a super job and I didn't have to mess 
with any nasty chemicals. For any restoration parts such as clips, 
rubber moldings, and  grommets etc. you should check Sunbeam 
Specialties' catalog - it's on the web at http://www.rootes.com/ and 
there's also Classic Sunbeam Auto Parts at 
http://www.classicsunbeam.com/ - probably the closest Tiger parts 
specialist to you would be Tiger Auto Service in Dayton - don't have a 
link for them, but you should be able to find their contact information 
on TigersUnited.com.

Good luck and don't be afraid to ask questions.

Theo Smit
