Go ahead. Search under 00 for a sports car that

(2)
does 0 to 60 in 9.2 seconds,
(3)
turns 164 hp © 4400 rpm. There’s one — Sunbeam
Tiger V-8. It puts you wheel-to-wheel with the 00-00 jobs.
Tiger’s secret?
Sunbeam
and
Chrysler Motors Corporation started with a very tough Class F Alpine, built to sell in volume. (A truly hot car, yet priced under 00 in the United States!)
They gave it a potent V-8 and matching powertrain and modifications to accommodate same, and out
came Tiger’s unique performance/price proposition.
Spectacular specs.
Tiger's own four-speed gearbox is close ratioed, starting with 2.32:1 in 1st. With a 2.88 axle and quick clutch, things happen in a hurry here.
That includes braking. Girling self-adjusting discs (9.85") up front, 9" drums behind. And they’re power assisted at all four corners besides!
It also includes steering. Rack & pinion, 3.1 turns lock-to-lock. Very positive.
On the road, Tiger reacts without surprises in an ess-curve or a drift, and is sur
prisingly smooth over both bad roads and tar strips.
Comfortable cockpit.
With this much punch at the price, you might suspect some short-changing inside. Not so.
We start with handsomely
pleated, foam-padded bucket seats. Then make them fully adjustable — with reclining backs.
Then we give you a telescoping steering wheel.
Adjustable foot pedals. And footwell ventilation to take
the curse off a hot day.
You also get a two-speed heater (standard) for cold days. Plus niceties like a lockable console. A walnut dash. An easy-to-work top.
And a big trunk.
Take on a
Tiger V-8 at your Sunbeam dealer's. Treat it gently at first - it’s equipped with instant fangs. But before long, you’ll have sold yourself a 00 head start on competition.
