Thanks in advance, fonts are definately not my strong-suit.

Hi Tread42,

There must be thousands of fonts out there. However, to me the font looks like one of these on my PC:

Bookman Old Style

or

Book Antiqua

By the way - the link you posted used a JS function called changeIt() that doesn't apear to be in the page...

Good Luck

The "RUCKEN" of BRUCKENS looks like 36pt Palatino Roman on my creaky old monitor. "About Us" is close to 14pt same, slightly different. Could be different anti-aliasing? BTW, IANAGD (I am not a graphic designer).
 
In my computer it looks kinda like a Century Font.
 
Looking at the choices given you so far:

It's not Bookman Old Style - The C, t and S give it away.
It's not Century - for the same reason (the C, t and S).

I don't have Palatino Roman, but I do have Palatino Linotype.

Both Book Antiqua and Palatino Linotype are extremely similiar. It looks like the spacing of Palatino Linotype is more of a match, and the leading angle of the letter "A" is a an identical match to the Palatino Linotype. Book Antiqua has a slightly lazier lead in angle for "A". Like I said I don't have Palatino Roman on my system, but since it's in the same family, I'd say Wray has the font pegged.

I'm little confused by this:
Is this your site, and you just forgot the font you used?
