Yeah, I've read this on several forums, it's a sad day. They've been around since the early fifties and in my opinion a cornerstone of hotrodding. Every car and bike that I own or have owned has something made by crane on it. A sign of the times. I've heard rumors that Flowmaster is next.

I wouldn't say its too much of the sign of times but more bad management.  Ever since the management  fucked Harvey Crane out of his company it was on the long slope down.  Crane Cams was always a sore subject with Harvey Crane, when I was talking to him about three months ago he was still looking for justice after all these years..  I think he finally got it   Sad for us though.

I believe they were purchased by that company in 2002. Must be an old press release.

[interested bystander]

Yrs truly has previously posted on a Drag race website something  like "Crane Cams being gone is like Coca Cola closing its' doors" or words to that effect.

Un-effing believable.
