[Tigers] Previous Owners

[DJoh797014 at aol.com]

B382002668 was originally sold in Houston Texas to Don Roth.
He was a helicopter mechanic for the Navy and was transferred
to San Diego where he still lives working on helicopters.  I  learned
about him when re responding to an Info Wanted ad in CAT.  He
recognized the LAT oil pand and other options he put on the car.
He sold the car to a Dee Jackson.  It was in a accident where a 
bimbo ran a light and clobbered the right front.  He moved the car 
to Belvidere, IL where he made Plymouths.  The Tiger sat for 10
years in his garage. He lost his job and I bought the car in 1978.  
I fixed the damaged right front suspension and have been driving 
it since until my son expereinced a broken fulcrum pin and hit an 
Explorer (Rolled it over and totalled it) bounced off and took down 
a light pole until landing in a ditch.He was fine the car was not.  
Heavy damage to the front.
 
After 5 years of collecting parts, I am fixing it now.  I was able  to
save the fenders and just finished welding on the new nose piece
and radiator support.  Measurements match the manual exactly
and my new Wilcox hood fits great!  Lots to do yet, but I hope
to drive it this year.
 
B382002559 is owned by De Johnson who I met at the
IN SAAC Spring Fling and again at the Aspen SUNI.
I used to tell him that explains the red overspray on his car.
