Ron,
For a triumph club in Chicago try ISOA. Their website is
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/buja/isoa.htm. Perhaps you could
find out more from them directly.
For a decent looking car cover, try Rimmer brothers in the UK
http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk they have a tailor fit car cover for the
spitfire (part number RL1421)
Have fun.
