Tigers at SAAC 1992
Contribution by Terry Curry
Entertaining video of SAAC in Portland 1992. A lot of Tiger footage (I think the Tiger on the single axel trailer behind the grandstands might be Peter Phelps Tiger with the chrome roll bar) https://youtu.be/s0PVk4r7OSw
Also shared below is a photo of a line of Tigers at Shelby American Automobile Club convention in 1992, Portland Oregon is shared with Terry's lament "Too bad we don't attend other events in force."
Patrick says "In those days we only had 4 TV stations and there was no such thing as Cars and Coffee. Driving to an event was no big deal as you probably drove the car daily and just threw a suitcase in the car and went. The car was not just a hobby it was a lifestyle!"
Terry responds "In 1992 I was 32 and I had colored TV and cable, and the cars were almost 30 years old. I don’t think they were commuter cars anymore, it was a hobby by then."
"I thought that was a lot earlier than 1992" says Patrick
