    Chassis Engineering in Iowa is closing shop after 53 years. Always had good products at a fair price and was one of very few that offered a choice of weld in or bolt in parts. Going to have an online auction sometime after Thanksgiving.

    I agree, Evan. Pretty sad. I hate to see any American, especially, small business, close up.
    These guys were real good for builder, fabricators.
    Not good news.

    Bummer. My 1931 Ford has a CE front I beam axle... pretty sure I bought the 4 bar kit from them too back in the early '90's.

    So Evan.. who is your go to source now that CE is unobtanium?

    Here's a link to their website if anybody is interested: Welcome to Chassis Engineering. This is where we will offer our final inventory.

    I've got a really nice '34 grill shell hanging on the wall in the barn... after reviewing CE's swap meet parts... seems that ole grill is worth big bucks.
