Hotchkis Suspension Open House and GM Car Show 2013

Our friends at Hotchkis Suspension in Santa Fe Springs held their annual open house and car show over the weekend. The show attracted about 100 local GM enthusiasts for a BBQ, prize raffle and shop tours. Here are some photos of the action.

A local Impala club brought out a large group of late model Impala sedans.

Hotchkis tech talk and vehicle inspections

The event was an all-GM show, which attracted a lot of late model Chevy Camaro vehicles. Hotchkis makes a lot of suspension component kits for the Gen 5 Camaro so it was not a surprise to see so many of them in attendance.

2nd Annual Chevy Camaro Car Show at California Car Cover

Our 2nd Annual Camaro Car Show was this past Saturday at California Car Cover. The show attracted a nice mix of new and old Chevy Camaro vehicles from all over Southern California. A big thanks to everyone that made the drive out to our store and spent a few hours with us this weekend.

 The front lawn featured a few of the early risers who were at our store in Chatsworth bright and early. It was a nice group of first generation Chevy Camaro cars, plus one clean early 80's Camaro that joined the group. The colorful cars attracted a lot of attention from passersby.

Whether you preferred the 1969 Camaro or drive a 2013 model, our show had examples from every generation of Chevy Camaro. It was a great event for anyone that loves the Camaro.
