it is hard to answer that one without stepping on some toes.

Many levels of manufacturing regulated out of business in this country is a major issue. There are very few hotrod partss manufactures left in california. Most having Moved to Tennesee, Alabama or Texas. add in that the families of a number of manufactures have sold the companies to holding companies.

1200 dollar US Radiator brass radiator or a 250 Dollar Champion that came from China.
