Hi Everyone,
My name’s Carl Ogren and I am one of the sales and tech guys here at Chris Alston’s Chassisworks. I have actually been a normal member of this forum for several years -mostly lurking and giving my buddies a hard time. I have been fortunate to know some of you personally and many professionally.

With Chassisworks having recently become a Lateral-G Supporting Vendor I am now allowed to post in an official capacity. That’s pretty exciting for me because now not only do I get to talk about cars on the phone all day but I get to help out on this forum too!

A little about me; I’m in my early 30s and was born and raised in Northern California spending lots of time at Sears Point/Infineon with my dad and his drag car. I play mandolin and guitar in an Irish rock band even though I’m not Irish. I have four 1960s vehicles at home but still have an odd weakness for 80s Toyota pickups. I raced dirt bikes and street bikes a little bit in my 20s and still track ride a Honda NC29 as often as possible. Of my current projects the most complete is a ’69 big block El Camino but I will save details on that for later.

I look forward to providing feedback and answering questions about all of the Chris Alston’s Chassisworks brands products. I don’t claim to be an expert or guru but I do happen to work with a few. If you have a question please don’t hesitate to call my direct extension (247) or send me an email at [email protected].

Welcome Carl. Can you please get somebody over there to develop drop-spindle for the early Mustang suspension? My TCP Coil-Over conversion setup is max'd out.

Thanks

Thanks guys.

Jody, I'm still impressed by our shop/factory and I saw it for the first time five years ago!

Chris, give me a call. I don't see us making a drop spindle anytime this decade but there may be some other way for us to get your car a bit lower depending on the year of your car and the current combination.

Will an '88 Landcruiser do? Got one for my fiance for Xmas last year.

Welcome Carl. :thumbsup:

What's up Gaetano, are you coming out to SCCA at Mather this weekend? I'll be out there on Sunday. I'm riding shotgun with our webmaster in his grocery getter, maybe co-driving.

Haha! If I brought home another vehicle I think I'd find myself single. I left out how many motorcycles I have hoarded. :_paranoid Shhhh!

I'll be at Thunderhill on Saturday and doing some family time on Sunday. If I have the energy to get the fluids changed maybe I can talk the wife into it. Keep me posted on the next Mather event.
