Hey Mike, figures we might think similarly as a grew up in Downers Grove and
bought my first TR a 2 year old 4a from the Triumph dealer that used to be
located between DG and Westmont on Ogden Avenue and the second, my present TR-6
(now looking factory fresh with a total of 320,000 miles on the odometer) new
from the same dealer. Not a TR guy indeed!
My friend Tom Klingbiel used to own the City Meat Market in Hinsdale I think he
might have been on the City Council too after I left for California and my
friends and I spent more than a few lazy afternoons at the Naperville pool
(quarry).
