I'll try to weigh in on this a bit further than I have previously, since I have feet planted in both worlds--Triumph ownership and environmental concerns. First, the air pollution problem is real, an

Amen to that. I have a `68 VW bus which spent most of its life in Michigan and Massachusetts. In 1988, I put patch panels all around because the sills were seriously eaten. When I got to the front wh
