[Tigers] Hypothetical question???

Tim,

Of course an unlimited budget is nice, you wouldn't "overdo it", because 
that is probably NOT the way you got your money (or it will soon be 
gone). Having money does not make one foolish, nor does "over restoring" 
or "kustomizing" make any sense if future resale is in mind.

However, for those desiring good work, I would rely on Steve Alcala, in 
SoCal (http://www.tigersunited.com/articles/dm-lister/MountjoyLemans.asp).

For mechanical work, Dale's Restorations, (Dale Akuszewski) also in 
SoCal area.
(http://www.tigersunited.com/techtips/tech_threads/tt-rearsusp.asp)

These are NOT the cheapest artists in this arena, but they are well 
known for their work.  I have had personal work done from both.

There are more well-known Tiger Specialists in the Midwest and East 
Coast,  but have not had personal experience with them.  TE/AE members 
can probably recommend. (http://www.teae.org/)

There are specialist in specific restored items, but that's for the 
do-it-yourselfers, The recommended parties can purchase and install the 
necessary components for you.

As for the car, an original Tiger Mk II is the rarest, and already leads 
the resale list price.

BTW:  Who died? ;-)
