- Repair and High-Performance parts for Triumph and MG.
- I’ve done business with Ted for over 20 years. He has a working relationship with Rimmer Brothers and makes purchases every two weeks or so, passing along the savings to his customers. Extensive knowledge of Triumphs in general. He has knowledgeable contractors on file to rebuild steering racks, transmissions, brake boosters, and other specialized parts unique to our cars.
- TSI Automotive (Ted Schumacher) provided a rebuilt Servo / Brake Booster. They would have rebuilt my brake booster if I wanted to keep the original, but I was satisfied to purchase an in-stock rebuilt booster. I was required to send them my brake booster core. March 2018, I paid $135 plus $26 packaging and shipping.
