Awe geez. Great insight to make such products! The S-60 for the GTO was fantastic.

Very sad indeed. RIP Bob Stange. Strange engineering was a sponsor for the Grocery Getter Drag car and the Boss Bird. He and his son Jeff always made plenty of time for us to explain our goals and hardware needs. They were always very supportive of our unusual projects and we had lots of their components in both cars. Very high quality parts and great people to work with. My condolences to the entire family.

I have a couple of Bob's "Strange Engineering" Center Sections for my 9" ford rear housings. I dealt with the company thru Larry Kaufman who knew Bob. Very good company and parts.
