<DIV>My opinion is that some cars (and the Tiger is one of them) either need
period correct modifications or left stock. That “Foose-ized” Tiger on
Overhaulin just seemed like someone had put a leisure suit on it. It will
probably retain value because of the Foose name, but in 2020 it will surely look
out of date. The dash in that Overhaulin Tiger was also a sad thing to see. To
me the factory Tiger dash has always been a distinctive aspect of the car.
On my Studebaker side of life the word is that the red Avanti Fantom Works did
was a $25,000-$30,000 car on which well in excess of $100,000 was spent. And,
while the paint and interior looked nice, the stance of the car was
disproportionally jacked up and made the car look awful. In this case
perhaps the Tiger owner got off easy.</DIV>
