This is an authentically restored barn find. It is a late Tiger MK1 that has had a limited chain of ownership desirable mechanical options, and a high degree of originality. The car was equipped early on with a host of Los Angeles Tiger (LAT) options that were offered through Shelby's Southern California shop. Features included a performance intake (LAT 1), cast alloy wheels (LAT 9), and a limited-slip differential with a 3.54:1 ratio (LAT 50 and 53).
The car is believed to have been raced by its first owner. By 1975 the car had come into the care of its second owner, a Texas resident. Then displaying just 27,470 miles, the Tiger was garaged in the owner's barn and remained there for the next 37 years.
The current owner discovered the car in early 2012 in Omaha, Nebraska. A full restoration began, including a rebuild of the original 260 CID Ford Fairlane engine and Cobra intake manifold, improving performance with the addition of 289 K-Code specification headers, crank, and rods. The body was repainted in Arctic White, while the interior was given red leather upholstery - color choices consistent with the car's original factory finish.
Since the restoration work was completed, the car has traveled just 150 miles.By Daniel Vaughan | Feb 2014
