Detroit Speed makes its bones designing and manufacturing super high quality suspension and chassis components for American cars. They are mainly known for first gen Camaro upgrades, but their catalog now covers everything from 1963 Corvettes to current year Camaros with a great variety of GM cars as well as classic Ford Mustangs. And the quality of their components–everything from wheel tubs, to front clips, to complete suspension systems–is proven by the number of top-flight cars running Detroit Speed components at track days, autocrosses and full-blown races across the country.

But Detroit Speed is also quickly becoming one of the top hot rod shops in the country. The car shop began building test mules to flog their own products before selling them to the public, but now the number of customer cars being built outnumber Detroit Speed’s own cars. But no matter which car it is, the quality and attention to detail is outstanding.

We recently had a chance to visit with owners Stacy and Kyle Tucker and they gave us a tour of the cars currently under construction (and reconstruction) at Detroit Speed. There is so much cool stuff tucked away in their Mooresville, NC, shops we nearly dehydrated from drooling over everything. Following is a gallery of photos from our tour, and believe us when we tell you there is a lot more very cool stuff going on that Kyle and Stacy aren’t quite ready to reveal yet. We hope you enjoy the gallery as much as we enjoyed our visit, and we’ll make sure to check back in with the folks at Detroit Speed soon to keep you updated on their progress.

This customer’s 1941 Willys is being built practically from the ground up. There is a new chassis and multiple hand-formed body panels.

GM vehicles, like this Chevelle, are still by far the most popular in the car shop. Notice one of Detroit Speed’s hydroformed from clips outfitted with a full high performance front suspension.

Here’s a closer look at the Chevelle’s new front clip.

Stacy Tucker shows us the Camaro Detroit Speed built for competition in the One Lap of America.

Suspension upgrades to this ’69 Dodge Charger include ditching the torsion bars and engineering a new setup with upper and lower control arms.

Almost every panel on the Charger has been reworked, but the changes are subtle so they may not be apparent at first. For example, notice how the exhaust has been tucked into the rear roll pan.

Check out the extensive metalwork done for the interior.

Most of Detroit Speed’s cars are outfitted with LS engines, but the Charger required something more fitting for a Dodge. In it’s engine bay is a supercharged 6.1 liter Hemi which should be capable of around 960 horsepower at the crank.

This 1963 Chevy II is nearly complete.

Even though most people will never see it, an incredible amount of time has been invested into the metal fab work in the trunk.
