The road show is, well, back on the road again, this time in search of LBCs in the greater Kansas City area, while visiting family.  Now obviously, between the Kansas City Triumph Club and the other local Brit car clubs, there should be plenty of opportunities over the weekend, we’ll see what I turn up.

In the meantime, commentary, as posted along US 56 in Gardner, KS, southwest of KCMO.  Anyone remember GM’s X-series cars of the early 1980s, one of the corporation’s first attempts at a mass-produced front-wheel-drive sedan?  It was offered as the Chevrolet Citation, Pontiac Phoenix, Oldsmobile Omega and Buick Skylark.  The cars sold reasonably well until their replacement in 1985.   Finding one these days is rare although I supposed if I found a Chevy X-11 – the sports model – in good condition, it might prove worth a look.
