My 1965 Tiger was purchased new from Nick Graffeo Motors in Birmingham, 
AL, by a Huntsville, AL, resident on August 4, 1965. Presumably, 
Huntsville did not have a Sunbeam dealer at that time.  When I purchased 
the Tiger from that original owner in 1968, Chrysler had purchased a 
majority stake in Rootes, and Sunbeams were serviced locally by 
Huntsville Dodge.  I still own that Tiger.

I recall a document that said my Tiger's port of entry was in Texas, but 
I can't find that document now (which aggravates me since I'm a pack rat 
and save everything in my Tiger folder); so I can't back up that 
recollection.
