The Saint Louis Triumph Owners Association (SLTOA) is a group of British car enthusiasts who come together under the Triumph Marque. We enjoy good food, the occasional brew and/or cocktail, good company, and good drives.
Please look around our website to see what we have to offer the Triumph community and if you can find the time visit us at one of our monthly meetings or other gatherings which are posted in our events area, by all means come on by!
Visitors are always welcome!
Update on Club Activities due to Coronavirus Pandemic:
As of late-December, Missouri has been slowly easing restrictions. But, due to a recent upswing of Covid19 cases, this might change. On the Illinois side of the river, things have not changed over the past few weeks.
We’re going to resume posting events from roughly mid-May onward, pending an actual loosening of the restrictions. Again, we strongly recommend monitoring for announcements of postponements or cancellations. Realistically, it could be mid-August or later before gatherings such as car shows are authorized. As the situation changes, our web masters will post the information to all members and on the SLTOA web page.

Cancellations Due to Coronavirus:
Rescheduled Events (new dates shown):
Recent Event: Veterans Run. On Sunday November 8th 29 cars showed up with around 45 participants. A total of $850 was raised and donated to the Semper Fi Fund. We had participants from our club, the MG Club of St Louis and St Louis Miata Club.
Announcements/Updates:.
- Excellence Executed - TR4 first-ever Triumph Register of America restoration perfect score: Richard Lentinello in the July 2020 issue of Hemmings Classic Car documented the restoration of a 1961 TR4 that made history when it won best in show by achieving a perfect 100-point score at the Triumph Register of America national convention in Blowing Rock, North Carolina, in 2018. It was the first time since the club was founded in 1974 that not a single point was deducted during the judging process. Perfection had indeed finally won the day. This is a two part article with both parts being released publicly on their website this month. Click here to view Part 1, here to view Part 2.
- SLTOA Build a Brit Contest Results In: The winners of the SLTOA Build a Brit contest were announced. Dave Massey was awarded the 1st place certificate and prize of a premium 20 piece Color Marker Set, Michael Bakalor was awarded the 2nd place certificate and a set of Jot Safety Scissors, and Maria Moore was awarded a 3rd Place certificate and the prize of Crayola Washable (and we believe edible) Glue Sticks.
