Hello from Canada

[Paul-ish]

Hi there my names Paul and I own a 67 Beaumont (Canadian Chevelle)
It's a forever project (seems like anyway) Had the car for over a dozen years.
I've done a lot of suspention upgrading and this year i'm gonna autocross it.
Thats what brings me here.Always looking to improve it. Kind of on a lower budget these days but I love fabbing stuff and making stuff work.

An hour or two north of you depending if your driving that Beaumont or not.
Nice ride.

have you considered going to coil overs?? or at least adjustable shocks?

give em a call if you want to discuss your options.

Paul-ish,

That’s a great looking Beaumont. It’s definitely a different take on other A-Bodies. Did they make an SS model? Thanks for including Hotchkis (http://www.hotchkis.net/) in your build. We bet you’re looking forward to warmer weather!
