About two years ago we were in the same position we are in now, we took in a lot of work and things were ok for about 6 months then COVID hit. Currently we have 3 orders we can’t Ship because of COVID restrictions. International orders were starting to return but have died out.

We want to Thank Everyone that has Supported us over the last 11 years.
We have a couple of Customers we produce tooling for on a larger volume and we are going to keep those going.

Our Pulleys are what we are going to be concentrating on, Ford and Chrysler are next up.

We do have a lot of Tooling left and will be selling stuff till years end, if you’ve been waiting to order this is the last 3 months to do so before we shut Hoosier Profiles is shut down for good.
