    Hello from Fort Leavenworth, KS
    « on: July 12, 2015 - 09:18:28 AM »
    I will be in the market for a Challenger in the next year.  Want over 400 HP and all the amenities of a modern car.

    I have a 66 Sunbeam Tiger that is my "fun" car but am not able to drive it daily due to insurance requirements.

    So will be lurking around and doing lots of searches.

    I  have a neighbor with a 260 powered RHD Tiger.. Rough & Rusty.. Shame, he' owned it since 85, back when Tigers could be had cheap... Last year I was in Monterey for the Historics, Pebble & the auctions... Watched a very nice Tiger sell...$231,000.00     :22yikes:  They aren't cheap anymore...   Good Luck in your quest....

    The prices are getting stupid high.  I told my wife today that I would like a Hellcat.  She said, sell the Tiger  :swear:

    Thanks guys.

    Very cool car.

    I remember them even as a kid because I watched the TV 'Get Smart' back in the day.

    That's a very nice example! Makes me cringe to remember when we twisted a stud off my buddy Steve's white Tiger and he got so pissed he sold it and I think the price was somewhere around $1500.  :faint:
