Hurst Performance
We’ve already discussed Ms. Vaughn as the Miss Hurst Golden Shifter, and the legend she became. But let’s talk about Hurst Performance, Inc. Hurst was created in Warminster Township, Pennsylvania. The company manufactured and marketed products for enhancing the performance of automobiles – especially muscle cars and cars used in drag, street and stock racing. It began in 1958 and was bought in 1970. A subsidiary of the company still exists in a small capacity today.
