Sad news for owners of British vintage Triumph's and MG's. The supplier of parts for our LBC's suffered a devastating total loss of their building in Armagh, PA.
Fire completely destroyed the building and all of the contents, looks like three Triumph's from their collection were saved.

They were a critical supplier during the restoration of my 1961 Triumph TR3A.
Their customer service has been impeccable, if you had a problem Albert Runyan, the owner would often fix any problem personally.
I think it will be a tough road back, years of special parts, etc.
Photo attached, I bought a new top from them a month ago....Have 3 ring binder full of receipts from them and the other major supplier of British car parts, Moss Motors.

Oh, no!
That's almost like losing a member of a very large family. Had I a TR or MG in my garage, I'd have probably asked for gift certificates under my tree; worthless now.

In/abt 1957 (maybe?) the Jaguar factory in Coventry England burned to the ground, taking with it a large number of racing D-Types, a few C-Types, and the entire existing inventory of unsold XKSS street sports cars. Since fewer than 20 had ever been built and only a few had been sold, that represented the total sum of existing new XKSS cars.

Fairly certain people then felt as TR and MG lovers do now.
Sad Christmas news, inded.
