Here is a number (402) 572-0176. Address is 9536 Military, Omaha, NE, 68134. Have never been there but wanting to check them out maybe I can get over there this weekend. Did have someone from Shell Valley tell me they used to get frames from them but have not had any for awhile.

They supply HDR bodies
 
They supply boddies for the HDR coupe. Went to the barn or shop back in 1999 before the move to Texas. Nice guy and yes he used to get his frames from Shell Valley. Pretty Much a mom and pop out fit. Which isn't too bad look at Unique.

Jim GO BIG RED!!!

Gregg,

Great to hear from you. Bob at R & D seems like a real nice guy, and he stressed they use no high pressure sale call backs. Less then 90 days till kickoff. I have been watching and listening to the Husker baseball games my wife is going to kill me. Can get some College World Series tickets if you need them. Midstates is having their Spring Fling at the Old Market today going to go their after work.


GO BIG RED

CWS Oh My.
 
Jim,

I'd love to CWS but wil be out of the office until the 17 of June and then my MOm is coming to visit.

Keep that thought. Should be up for the OSU game and the Texas AM game.

Lets hope we can win a few more this year.

Bob at Midstates is super. My first cobra was a Midstates.

Just sold the B&B. NOw I'm looking again.

Chip,

I just received R & D's info letter. Theres not much info, just pics of a car and a simple price list. Kit price is $7,995.99, which isnt too bad . The address and phone listed are correct. Talked to Bob and he sounds like a stand up kind of guy.

I might drive up there over the 4th weekend to check them out. Paul

What do you tink an R&D Cocepts car would cost to build turn key: Engine, tranny, paint etc? How much SS is the highest build level that the company can provide? How muchtime would it take to build?
Will get the info but would like any opinons any of you have cb

Is this for real?? I can't find R & D Concepts on the web. That's a pretty great price for the coupe kit!!! If you have knowledge about the kit, please post your reply!!!

FYI:
R&D has been purchased by Shell Valley.
They are in the process of moving the tooling to their shop where it will be upgraded & improved.
The new unit will use a Shell Valley chassis, and will have the High quality SVM fiberglass work.
