Mary is a phenomenal driver. I think she would be tough to beat in a 82 Chevette. I don't take anything from Hotchkis, great product. It was what I was gonna do until stumbling on to PTFB. The price was the only thing that detoured me at the time. I was on a budget. I got Daves version of everything pictured, plus upper and lower control arms, G bars (handle bars), Moog steering components, 12.7:1 box, SFCs, solid body mounts, tall ball joints and a brace that goes between the G bars for $3300. More than my budget but I couldn't resist.

Its $1500 for the Hotchkis stuff in the pic. Plan on at least that much for their control arms and you can see what I'm getting at. Like i said I'm not trying to take a dig at Hotchkis. Just stating why I didn't choose them.

 

77Nomad – That’s cool! We’re just glad to see people building classics and keeping the hobby alive. Good luck with your build!

 

I would swap it all out for some sponsorship type deal, hmm... hmm. I plan on being seriously competitive locally in auto x. But still drive anywhere.

 

Ya, I like hotchkis stuff but I cant afford $1600 for their control arms. Proven equipment, but just too expensive for me at the moment. We may use their springs on my bro's 3rd gen though.

 

Ole Blue ’74 – Thanks for the nice words about our equipment. Hopefully your brother will be able to use our springs on his 3rd gen. We build parts to perform on the street and at the track.
Here’s a picture of an H-Team member’s 3rd gen at a recent track event:


And video from the event!
