    SSI goes online !

    Well its no secret, that I do some work for JP group from Denmark , the company that makes SSI and DANSK bodyparts etc

    Our first thing, will be to go live on social media´s forums etc, yes I know what you are thinking, NO they have not been on anything up to date , so its new from today
    2nd will be development of new parts, quality control etc
    I will still make mine, by restoring cars, making parts and NO DANSK will not buy everything I make

    But I will be here with the owner Martin , to answer your questions regarding SSI etc , and listen to what your guys are saying ,
    we maybe do not know the answer to everything, But we will do our best to have it

    So please join us and follow SSI on Instagram SSIEXHAUST .

    First some short facts

    JP group bought SSI in 2013 from John, as he wants to retire
    All tools where moved to Denmark
    The hole production is made in house in Denmark ! so no china etc what people are writing
    AND the exact same tools , spot welders , stamp and pressing tools are in use today !!!
    The exact same stainless steel 304 is bought in Denmark so no cheap china steel
    Of course, there have been learning difficulties in the beginning, but many improvements have also been made since
    and the quality control on these is intense, before they leave the house
    many ask why JP group offer now a SSI exhaust .. well John was in the making of one , pics of his tools attached
    but he never finished it, so Martin finished it , using same material as the heat exchangers , as JP group own exhuast program have a different finish
    But Martin the owner and John had long talks of, what the future could bring for SSI ,
    So new parts are in the making

    So this was just some short facts , and a few pictures attached

    but Join SSI on Instagram , where we will show you all, the behind scenes and stories

    Regards

    Martin & Marek

    Very nice.

    I remember John made a pass through the areas that supported "Detroit" after the downturn in the economy post sub-prime mortgage bust. He bought at least one CNC tubing bender and other equipment from shuddered businesses. This is the epitome of "making your own luck" by thinking ahead and recognizing opportunities. I enjoyed conversations I had with him but knew he was eventually going to get out of the business having come away with the impression he didn't like CA very much when it came to running a business there. Wherever he is now, I hope he's happy. Last of the nice guys.

    Hi Frank

    Offcause I will do my best to keep you guys updated here on the registry
    and share some of the same stories I will post on Instagram

    and if any of you guys have any questions, etc just ask
    BUT do note we are NOT here to sell parts direct, we are here to show that we are happy for your feedback
    positive and negatives ones as well
    but sales questions , you have to talk to a reseller , SMC , stoddard etc , SSI is only Business 2 busy´ness

    Regards
    Marek
