That was Steve Magnante of Roadkill Junkyard Gold.
I believe some of the earliest Tiger proto types probably had some hammer work done to clear everything until the proper transmission tunnel was engineered.
You can’t have a production line with a burly guy swinging a hammer, it would have taken a team of burly guys which is too costly and too imprecise.
Jensen cut the Alpine tunnel out and welded in the Tiger tunnel, no burly guys, no big hammers.
We know Steve got it wrong and I know others who get it wrong too; it is one of those legends that gets more wrong every year.
The story was written down so it had to be factual.

That car was on craigslist in western Mass all last fall for $750, for quite some time I may add. Isn't the guy talking, the owner of Empire Auto of TV fame? Some parts there but not much else.

I saw the video Tom Witt pointed out. That guy is beyond clueless; he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. And he comes on that he’s a expert. There are to be a law…
