A second chance to own a very rare and special car!
We are proud and excited to offer this very rare authentic 1966 Sunbeam Tiger MK1A. VIN# B382002230LRXFE JAL#
662239!
We purchased this rare speed sled from a local man who owned it for many years. The car underwent a complete
restoration a while back and still looks very presentable today. It was always kept in a climate controlled garage
and rarely if ever driven in the rain.
The body and its under carriage are completely rust and damage free. The older paint still has a very nice
finish. Only very minor cosmetics age blemishes are evident from very close up.
The interior is also very presentable. The seats, carpeting and gauge package are all in great condition. The
convertible top is in "like new" condition. No rips or tears anywhere. The rear plastic window does however show
typical clouding and could stand to be replaced some day. The dash does not appear original, and the instrument
gauges have been replaced with Autometer gauges. Mileage on the speedo is 1206, but we cannot authenticate that as
being the true mileage. Unlikely that it is. The original instruments do come with the car.
The original 260 CI , 300 horse power engine and gearbox preform as if it were still 1966. She has a T 10 4
speed. Dana 3.39 Posi traction rear. The engine has a mild makeover, a mild cam, Edelbrock manifold and a Holley
600 CFM CDI Ignition and Accell wires and cap. Also has stainless Headers and a new exhaust from the headers back.
All steel brake lines were replaced as were the brake hoses, rear brakes and calipers. A brand new Bosch Battery,
new windshield and new windshield rubber molding were just installed.
In summary, this is a real authenticated Tiger. Not a clone. The car has excellent "bones." A collector's rare
find. There were only 2706 1966 Sunbeam Tigers produced and according to the registry only 500 are still on the
road today. Doesn't come a whole lot more rare than that!
We ship everywhere including to the West coast and overseas. We have years of experience helping our client have
their cars shipped.
I personally drove this car and must say I was surprised when I put the pedal down. She was amazingly fast off the
line and smooth through all the gears. To say I was pleased with its performance would be an understatement.
Unlike most classic car dealers who photograph their treasures in professionally lighted studios or on Hollywood
driveways, we at Fuzzy Dice shoot our pictures at our facility using nothing more than a "point and shoot" camera.
So what you see is what you get. Most times even better in person.

Black Friday could power record November sales
Thu, Nov 26 2015Black Friday allows some shoppers to line up in the wee hours for doorbuster deals on laptops and TVs, but the day after Thanksgiving could mean huge profits for automakers this year, too. Multiple industry analysts predict record growth for the industry for November, and the upcoming incentives could help those numbers. TrueCar predicts that Black Friday incentives could provide a major boost, and it estimates a November sales jump of 3.9 percent from last year to a record for the month at over 1.35 million vehicles. As examples of potential deals, Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC plan to offer up to 20 percent off some models, and FCA US has no-interest financing for up to 75 months from its brands. "Consumers are excited about Black Friday promotions and these month-long events appear to be resonating with car buyers." Eric Lyman, TrueCar's vice president of industry insights, said in the report. Black Friday only recently became a big day for auto sales, according to an analysis from Edmunds. Last year, Thanksgiving weekend posted double the sales as any other weekend in the month. The company predicts a sales volume of over 1.33 million vehicles for November. If that happens, it would be the beat the previous record of 1.32 million sales for the same month in 2001. Some forecasts temper the gains for November but only slightly. Kelley Blue Book predicts flat year-over-year sales at 1.3 million vehicles, but that's largely because there are two fewer sales days in 2015 versus in 2014. "Black Friday deals on vehicles have grown in popularity in recent years, and should be a big contributor to this month's sales results," said analyst Tim Fleming in the study. The combined research from J.D. Power and LMC Automotive have the lowest November prediction among this group at just over 1.279 million sales for the month versus 1.299 million in 2014. However, once the researchers adjust the figures for the two fewer selling days, 2015 could actually be seven percent higher than last year. TrueCar Finds New Auto Sales in November to Reach Monthly Record Black Friday promotions bolster sales gains; industrywide incentives up 6% from last year November 24, 2015 12:11 PM Eastern Standard Time SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE) projects total new vehicle sales, including fleet deliveries, will reach 1,352,500 units in November, a 3.9 percent increase from a year ago and the highest ever for the month.
Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon get updated tachometers due to graphical error
Sun, Feb 8 2015After James Bearing bought a Chevrolet Colorado, he noticed a discrepancy between the truck's spec sheet and the truck's tachometer: Chevrolet said 3.6-liter V6 in the little pickup produces 305 horsepower at 6,800 rpm, but the the tachometer indicates a redline at 6,500 rpm. So either he wasn't making as much power as he was promised, or the tachometer display was incorrect. Bearing said he asked Chevy about it but got no response. Until now. A General Motors spokesman said the rev limiter is indeed set for 6,800 rpm, but the tach graphics "are slightly off" in the Colorado and the GMC Canyon, and submitted an SAE horsepower certification to back him up. If you're wondering how such a thing got past quality control... well, let's just say you're not alone. GM is going to fix "the graphics on future trucks," which makes it sound like Bearing will just have to learn to live with the indicated redline he's got. He could always pretend he's driving a sleeper, with four more ponies waiting to be unlocked in the danger zone for those who dare.

GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings
Thu, 31 Jul 2014The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.
