Ah, no. Fleming & Aronson T-bars were originally made, as in fabricated, by Mike Libey. Then, once they caught on, Greg Aronson did the TIG-welding. At no time did F&A or FAT cast these T-bars.

The maroon late looker I did an interior on last year had a set of those. And totally unrelated, I noticed today that it uses Koni Opel shocks up front Smiley
