Hmmm, anyone know a dealer in the STL area? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

Consequence: Poor fuel mileage & <font color="red"> FIRE! </font> /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif
 
Ummm... your closest dealer would have been Oliver C. Joseph on Main Street in Belleville. Used to stop by and drool at the B's and Midgets and laugh at the Fiats on my walk home from Jr High.

I wonder what ever happened to all those cool "MG Service" and "Authorized British Leyland Dealer" signs they had back in the shop....
 
I wish I had "authorized BL service' for my garage. Maybe we should have them reprinted.

Triumph Rescue has an old Triumph sign with the shield logo. It isn't broken at all. He just needs a place to mount it....
