I've been to Shell Valley, twice actually. I think they make a very nice product and were a close second in my search but IMHO I think the Midstates chassis and body will better handle higher horsepower and more wear & tear.

One nice thing though... you can see both chassis and bodies by walking, oh about, 50 feet. Both companies are now on the same premises and it provides a perfect side by side comparison. Bob at Midstates will have no problem hooking you up with whatever engine/suspension combo you want. I know some people have fit 17" rims under the body (perhaps with a little mod at the factory - just work out any desired before they lay the body). The best advice I can give is GO SEE THEM!
