Default Paul & Southern Speed Introduction

Hi guys my name is Paul Freeman. Many of you may know me from Thunder Racing. I spent over 9 great years with a great company but have decided to go out on my own. For those of you that don't know me; I'm a very straight forward and up front person. I have an avid love of hot-rodding Cars, Motorcycles, ATV’s and Boats. I'm have a high level of technical knowledge with late model cars and trucks. I've been involved with LS1s since they were out and of course the LT1s as well. I have many years of hand on experience with everything from cam profiles, internal engine parts, to full drag and street suspension set-ups.

Southern Speed is not a hobby for me or a part time business out of my garage, it is my new career and passion. We offer our customers an 8,000 square foot full service shop. Whether you are looking to have your new wheels/tires mounted and balanced, alignments, simple bolt-ons installed, welding services, heads/cam installed or full motor swaps, we can take care of you. With 3 ASE-Certified Technicians on staff and state-of-art equipment, we can install your parts quickly and most importantly correctly. We even have a custom paint and body shop on site able to do anything from painting your new hood to a full custom paint job. Custom painting parts like intakes and helmets is also available.

Our website www.southernspeedonline.com is up and running although it's still a work in progress. It offers secure online ordering as well as a mailing list to keep you up to date on new products and current specials. Most of the F-body section is complete and I'm working on it full time adding new stuff everyday. We have access to almost any parts out there so if you don't see something you are looking for please give me a call or e-mail and I can take care of you. Our prices will be competitive but our main goal will be total customer satisfaction. I personally handle the whole sales and shipping side of the business so if you call and I don't answer please leave me a message and feel assured calls and e-mails are promptly returned.

Please visit our website to learn more about us and our products. Shoot me an e-mail or give me a call if there is anything I can help with.

Thanks;

Hey Mark!! Glad to see you enjoying the car. Man it was sad day to see it pull out on your trailer.
