That's pretty neat!  Well done.  Looks like it's about the size of a MG or Triumph, so it probably doesn't take up much shelf space.

Beautiful looking paint finish and the perfect color. Clean looking body trim.

Don't think "pretty nice" really covers this build. Its more like fantastic.  I owned one of these cars and have this kit done so I can well appreciate this model.

My neighbor restored a 1:1 Alpine for his daughter's 16th birthday backinnaday. IIRC he found a Tiger (!) parts car that was a worn out SCCA racer for parts... thought the V8 was no bueno, he loved the little high winding engines.

I have this amt kit and the kit is a little dated. But you made it really nice. Great job.

Nice build.  I remember these cars from a few old movies in the sixties.  

Thank you very much

Great job; I like the Quebec plates on it!
I was cruising Kijiji recently and found some Alpines for sale, but I don't often see Tigers....so I guess a 1/25 version fills the gap!

Bully for you, you managed to find one that wasn’t warped. Absolutely top drawer build. I also owned one of these Cobra’s with wind up windows, just a blast to drive. I sold mine for a down payment on a home, cried like a baby all the way to the bank, still miss it 👍
