The Roadster Factory

Charles Runyan, now a well-known British car enthusiast, founded the Roadster Factory in 1978. The Company was established in Charles's apartment, and it now occupies a thirty thousand square-foot warehouse. It is the goal of The Roadster Factory to make it as easy as possible for our customers to drive, maintain, and restore classic British sports... cars for fun, for transportation, for racing, or for show as they desire. To this end, we stock everything from major components to nuts and bolts, and we provide free copies of parts catalogues for individual models. The Roadster Factory is run like an old British car company, and its warehouse buildings look like the Morgan factory at Malvern Link or the old MG factory at Abingdon. The staff is all long-term, and some, like John Swauger and Deb Gawlas, have been here since the beginning. Everyone cares about running the business well and about the future of British sports cars. The Roadster Factory is located on the Runyan family farm in the mountains of Western Pennsylvania. It is very beautiful here year-around, although the winters are sometimes rough. Spring, summer, and autumn months provide wonderful driving on two-lane country roads, and the location is a good one for a British car company. The Roadster Factory started out with early Triumph models, and it grew to cover the entire range of Triumph sports cars. MGB was added in 1988, and several other models may be added as time goes on. It is always a goal to make everything possible available for the models in which we deal at The Roadster Factory. This means everything, all body panels, all mechanical components, all interior components, all electrical components, convertible tops, and correct hardware components to hold everything else together. Models covered include TR2, TR3, TR4, TR4A, TR250, TR6, TR7, TR8, GT6, Spitfire, MGB, and MGB-GT.
