Driven By Excellence
Our Ford Model ‘A’ chassis was one of the first of its kind, transforming a weak frame into a solid foundation and setting a new standard in reliability and performance. Today, Total Cost Involved continues to deliver that same level of quality in all of our chassis and suspension products, earning design and track performance awards like SEMA-SRMA’s ‘Manufacturer of the Year.’
But our commitment to quality doesn’t stop with our products. We work closely with our partners to offer guidance and support throughout your build for an experience that goes beyond a transaction. Like you, our team of gearheads and hotrod enthusiasts are passionate about classic car and truck restoration and can answer your questions to help find the right parts for your ride. At Total Cost Involved, our goal is to instill total confidence in your purchase through exceptional design and unrivaled customer service. That’s why we offer a 6-year, 60,000-mile warranty on our wear-and-tear items and a lifetime warranty on our custom-manufactured parts.
For 50 years, Total Cost Involved has delivered high-performance chassis and suspension products for street rods, muscle cars and classic trucks all over the world.
