Default Sunbeam Tiger Diecast

Recently, Diecasm presented a fitting homage to my father by using photos of his Sunbeam Tiger to represent their current Sunbeam Tiger Homage Edition. My dad purchased his Tiger brand new off the showroom floor in 1965 and has kept it all these years. I think it is very cool that Diecasm selected photos of my dad's Tiger for their website. It all started with a Hemmings competition to help Automodello select their next diecast car to go into production. I entered the competition with a suggestion that the Sunbeam Tiger should be their next diecast...and the rest is history. Here is a link to the page so that you can check it out for yourselves.

Check out the below link to this thread to get the whole story regarding my dad's Tiger.

That's really a great story. I can certainly appreciate it as I also own a black Tiger. However I have only had mine for 38 years . . .
