I, too, noticed that the Santa Maria Tiger is not 100 percent original or a 100 point example, but it seems to be a 12 month a year daily driver, and I'm fine with the car that the magazine chose. I'm always interested to hear from longtime Tiger owners, and remember that this was the second full Tiger IA evaluation from the magazine in seven months. Remember the Andy Rooney Tiger restoration article.
If I have any concerns about the article, it's the comment about Tigers being built with "heavier gauge steel" than Alpines. Anyone read that before, anywhere? Also, the comment about the Dana diff. The axle assembly was sourced from the UK firm, Salisbury. Did Salisbury themselves source just the diff from Dana, or does it just have some common parts? I don't ask these things rhetorically, I'd like to know.
