I'm visiting the UK and can't see this link from over here.. I have a Stag
and the TRF didn't carry Stag specific stuff, only parts which shared a
common part number.  Most of my Stag stuff came out of UK. However, I did
buy stuff from TRF and I took advantage of when they had 50% postage
charges.
I can only imagine this being a great loss to the rest of the Triumph
community in the US.

Dave, you are a valued member of this list. However, these comments are
speculative. The problems concerning the investment program and the ill
will from those that lost money is understandable. However, Albert is now
the owner of TRF, not his father.

The 3 cars in the showroom were saved by the firefighters before the fire
got to that part of the building.  Albert has worked extremely hard to keep
the business going. If I remember correctly, he had to purchase TRF from
Charles' estate at a value approved by the court. At the 6-pack Trials I
understand he was excited and discussed plans for improvements coming in
2024. His sister's MG was destroyed in the fire along with more cars not in
the showroom area. The value of those three cars saved would be small
compared to the inventory including irreplaceable NOS parts and tooling
patterns, etc. It will be up to the fire marshall to determine the cause of
the fire.

The total loss of TRF is a tragedy that will have a significant effect on
our hobby. I can't imagine how hard this is for Albert and the wonderful
current staff at TRF. They deserve our support, not speculation about what
happened.
