Just wondering what the good chassis shops are in CT. I'm just about ready to send my challenger in for a cage and I'd like to get some feedback about who to use so I could call them up and get a quote so I know what I'm getting into... Thanks in advance

I use F&R Chassis shop in NY. 888-477-5777. Well known racer at LVD and a decent guy. Mention my name as he knows me well if you call. He's about 1/2 hour past LVD.
Ya, just don't send him any new parts to put in your car like ignition, etc. or they will end up in his car and you get his USED stuff. Ask me how I know He is a decent fabricator but IMO lacking integrity.
he is closer to Albany NY then he is CT

Mark Markow. No-one else around I'd trust. He's done at least 6 full cars (either back half or race conversions) for all the racers I know. Not cheap, but worth it.
Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.

Mark Markow did my Hemi Cuda, Very happy with the work he did.
He did my Cuda' as well.
It can be seen on Steve Seiferts site, in the friends section.
The purple one.
Mark is no-bull. Get a quote, pay the bill, car gets done on time,top shelf work. Period.
Some very fast cars have come out of that shop.

Frank of F&R has done quite a bit of work for me, my brother and several of my good friends. Put a new strut front end on my 70 Cuda. Helped me rebuild my 91 Daytona. Did a semi restoration on my brothers 69 Mustang Convertible and painted it. Built a new chassis for my best friends 67 Mustang which runs 8.70 - 8.80's. Built a new Daytona for one of my other friend's and we have never had any problems. I have left him quite a bit of new parts and they were all on my cars. He always treats me right and will continue to give him my business.

I don't think Mark does any advertising.
But if you want to see top shelf work, check out MRC racing....www.markowracecars.com
Not to mention, the stuff out of his shop flies.
