We can provide you with the in-line 6 perches, they just don't come fully welded. Out of the eight units we have sold for the in-line six two had a different style mounting location on the driver's side... so now we just tack the perches together and the end-user can modify if necessary and fully weld.

barnold · 03-17-2010, 04:45 PM

Nathan I will call you tomorrow afternoon to order the items I takled to you about yesterday.

basemodel67 · 03-17-2010, 11:41 PM

I'm still holding out for the coilover setup... any updates?

68GMCCustom · 03-18-2010, 12:11 AM

OK Nate....I mtnioned it before....so I guess its time I give you a call.

**68jewel** · 03-20-2010, 12:45 AM

Guy, you have got to spring for one of these. It is a beautiful piece of equipment. I must have stared at mine for a week when I got it. Here's mine installed. Not that Nate needs this because his products speak for themselves, but I vouch for his stuff 100%.

low900rr · 03-20-2010, 06:02 AM

Just bought a big block for my 69 yesterday......looks like im gonna have to sit this sale out too.

ShowSS12 · 03-20-2010, 08:10 AM

I want the non tubular model. I guess is version 2.0?

texastrendz · 03-20-2010, 08:22 PM

showss12, that is what nate is building for me, in my opinion the tubing does not fit the style i am after. i know you will not see a lot of it, but is still not what i wanted.mine is all flat plate, no tubing. i should have it next week. i shoot some pics and post them.

lowdownstar · 03-20-2010, 08:30 PM

is this what you want showss12?

I'm afraid I have to agree. Don't get me wrong the tubes look cool but even though I have tube upper and lower control arms the ealy style DM's seem to blend better and create a visual "package deal. To me it seems the V3.2 DMs are a little too "look at me" and could draw the eye in an unbalanced way if that makes any sense.

That being said it seems like Nate is doing what he has always done and provided the customer with what they want and is willing to tweak each unit to the customer. Just try to find that in another product of this type in todays mass-produced stamped from china world.

I want that whole "LOOK AT ME" syndrome when I drive any of my cars. Sorry, no harm meant, but I thought that this is what most of this affection of classic vehicles is about. Notice I said "most" not all. Most also includes the love of that era of the 60's & 70's too. Rather it be a 68 C10 or a $400,000 Lamborghini we all want to be seen and admired. Just as the opposit if one was driving a Pinto...no one would probably want to be seen. To each his own though. That's the beautiful thing about Nate. He presents us with more than one model.

royo · 03-22-2010, 03:56 PM

I like this style myself. I don't know what version it is
