VIDEO: Hellwig Products Brings Musclecars into the 21st Century

Vintage musclecars are great; they’re fast, beautiful to look at and provide a killer soundtrack from behind the wheel. Their timeless looks are obvious inspirations for the pony cars of today and their simplistic mechanicals make engine modifications a breeze.

However, with great pride of owning one of these classic machines comes the drawbacks of antiquated braking systems and subpar handling capabilities. Keeping in mind that these components were designed at a time when most roads were straight, the population was only a fraction of what it is now, we didn’t have European and Japanese competition to deal with, and you can see how may enthusiasts take the pro-touring approach to when it comes to their musclecar.

We’ve recently teamed up with Hellwig Products for the suspension upgrade for our Chevelle project, that we loving refer to as, “Project: 88.” While we’re still in the middle of compiling the story, we did want to bring you up to speed on not only what’s going on with our A-body, but to briefly familiarize you with Hellwig and what their products mean for enthusiasts like us.

 

They offer a complete line of hollow and solid sway bar kits for most popular musclecars, complete with urethane bushings, 3-point adjustability, mounting hardware and end links as they arrive at your door with stone-resistant black hammer tone powdercoating. And they recently added their patented Frame-FX kits for the ’68-72 GM A-body (Chevelle, Skylark, Tempest/LeMans, Cutlass).

Designed, engineered and manufactured right here in the U.S.A., Hellwig Products is now a third-generation family owned business with some really fascinating products. We’ll be keeping you posted on not only what Hellwig has in mind for the classic musclecar crowd, but how their adjustable sway bar kit made a difference in our Chevelle project – so stay tuned!
