street beasts kits

[imfastrnu2]

I know this is a way old post but I thought I 'd chime in on my experience with CMC/StreetBeast/whoevertheyaretoday. I paid a lot of money for my kit and received a frame with a few parts and most everything else on back order. This was in 1994. Shortly after that they filed for bankruptcy and I lost nearly $10G. Undetered, i went looking again and ended up at Midstates. Bob Kallio was one of the nicest people you'd ever meet and even bought all my CMC parts from me; basically a discount on his car. He didn't have to do that and probably lost a little money on the deal but he gained a customer who'll brag him and Midstates up left and right. A few years ago Midstates was merged with Shell Valley and so far my dealings with them have also been very good. I guess the point is, there are a lot of really good manufacturers out there so if you really want a Cobra don't look for cheap, look for quality of product and coustomer service, you'll be happier in the long run.

Then "the best" is out of business. Maybe you did not get the memo?

Then that puts them on an equal plane with Contemporary Classics.
