Jerry started Abingdon Spares as a sideline (he was a trumpet player with
the Boston Philharmonic) in a suburb of Boston (Needham, Mass). The
company moved to Walpole (many years ago) and became a full-time business
for Gerry when a vintage racing accident (flipped his MG) cost him several
finger tips (end of trumpet playing). As far as I know AS is still there,
but as I said earlier I've been out of the T-series parts loop for a while
so could have outdated info. The museum is across the river in Vermont,
if I remember correctly, so that could account for the Westminster
address.
