Wow, forgot about this thread... but here's an image of the touring car mentioned in the thread above. Seems lay-down shocks were Tigermoth's trademark. 
Hey guys.
I used to have some dealings with Tigermoth as I imported a few of the kits into Australia and resold them, and ran a couple of the cars myself. The LCGV10 was/is a decent touring car....handled on rails (even outdoors on asphalt, which is the predominant type of on-road track in Australia) although it had a few niggles...unfortunately the demand for them wasn't great. Shame as I believe with some development to sort the minor issues the car would have been the equal of any others in it's day.
Re: the B3 with lay down shocks...I believe it was only ever prototyped. I enquired with Chris at Tigermoth who mentioned he might consider producing me a conversion kit at some time in the future, but at that stage was focused on other commitments. Unfortunately I never got to owning one of these bad boys and to the best of my knowledge they were never offered for public sale.
I'd love to see some detailed shots though.
Cheers,
Steve
