While the car was undergoing restoration with its previous owner, he original JAL tag turned up missing. We reached out to the renowned administer of the Official Tiger Registry Norm Miller (who knows this particular car) first with a telephone conversation, nd followed up with a letter (which is included with the car) from Mr. Miller. He researched and verified the original JAL and has verified that this car is indeed a genuine Tiger.
