Studebaker Suspension Supplier Fatman Fabrications Ceases Operation

[r1lark]

Fatman Fabrications has for years made various Studebaker suspension systems. However, they have now ceased operations. From their website at https://www.fatmanfab.com/ :
"Unfortunately, Fatman Fabrications has ceased operations. We have provided everyone’s information to our lawyer. They will be sending out claim forms for a refund on all orders and deposits. We apologize for any inconvenience this is causing.
Tim T
President of Fatman Fabrications"

No other information was given.

Please please don't use this thread to rant and whine about desecrating /ruining /screwing up Studebakers by modifying them, or complaining about "Mustang II" suspensions. This post is simply for information to those who might have Fatman parts on their Studebakers, have Fatman parts on order, or were thinking about using Fatman parts on their Studebakers.

Speedway and Southern Rods both sell m2 kits. No big deal.
