I’ve never seen a clock on the lists of LAT options that I’ve seen. And, I wonder what the cost was to have the clock installed. I think it has been established that clocks were not that common originally in Tigers or Alpines for that matter which makes me wonder if buyers looked at the options and decided a 4 bbl was money better spent. Also, if the 3030 was indeed never produced, and then was reproduced from legend, that would be amazing to me! <br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On May 12, 2020, at 2:43 PM, jimdamelio via Tigers <<a rel="nofollow noreferrer" href="mailto:tigers@autox.team.net" target="_blank">tigers@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:</div><br><div><div><div>Clyde, what you wrote is very true. Rootes used what was available from their suppliers. There weren't many factory installed options. White walls, sunvisors, hardtop etc. Most all of the factory options could be dealer installed.

I believe it was a typo in an article and people have run with it. Even gone so far as reproducing the clock face with those numbers.

<div style="font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:10pt;line-height:normal;font-family:arial">I have watched all this clock talk for over a week now, I maybe missing something but my understanding was that the clock was a dealer installed accessory, not installed at the factory, am I right or wrong?? That being said, if the clocks were in fact dealer installed then couldn't you have an early clock installed in a late car depending on the dealers stock, or when stock was ordered from Rootes warehouse who's to say if it was always shipped out on in the order of production or receipt from supplier. I don't know which clock I have because I'm presently not where my car is to ck it out, I do know it has been converted to quarts and keeps perfect time, Clyde</div>
