[Tigers] Red Grease

[Alan Zeni]

Moss was selling theirs (probably a small tube) for $3.95.  No wonder there
was a run on it.

  I have always been curious about the scarcity and high price of  this red
grease. I remember using it in the early 60's on an Austin Sprite. So, if it
was being manufactured that long ago it would seem that it's not some kind of
exotic, modern formula.  I wonder why no one has duplicated it for a
reasonable price? There has to be a demand when you look at the number of
older British cars in the US.
  I have to hand it to the manufacturers and distributors.  They have kept it
scarce, mysterious, in small quantity tubes and  kept the price right up
there.  I going to be pretty pi$$ed off some day when we find that all along
it was just Vaseline with some red dye mixed in:-)
