Lone Star Classics

Does any one have any experience with Lone Star Classics? They are offering 32 Roadster bodies for $2500.

 

I too have seen these advertised...........anyone?

 

If it's even halfway decent thats a hellof a deal.

 

I figured they were so I ordered 5. They are out of stock but they rep told me he would call when he got them in.

 

I see them in Deals On Wheels and some of the other specialty rags.......they also do a 50s Vette body

Anyone know the quality?

 

Well, let's see. They're either the patron saints of hot rodding, or they're selling cheap shit to make a quick buck.

Maybe you guys should flip a coin.

Flipped a coin, landed on its end. I am going out there to look at them, I will take some pics and post them.

 

Is this the group in Ft Worth that also sells Cobra replicas? I visited their 'factory' a few years ago, looking to buy said replica and it seemed to be run by a bunch of 25 year kids (note that I said kids). While they seem to have good products, it's such a shoestring operation that I didn't get a warm fuzzy that they would be around to supply all the parts I would need if there was a detour during my build process that held me up for any period of time. I do note though that they have been around for quite a while, which must speak 'relatively' well about them. I'd start googling their name, especially on some of the cobra websites, that should give you an idea.

 

I just checked their website and the Deuce bodies are $3995.00. Here's the addy if anyone wants to investigate further:

I actually bought the last one they had last winter! My good buddy (Big Dad) ran over and gave it a look. It turned out to be a good body for the money and the guys or "kids" as someone called them were good to work with. Hell they even stored it for a couple of months untile I got down there. Let me know if you want some detailed pictures.

 

I thought it was a solid piece , too good to lay out there collecting snow Fergie

Hey Fergen............Trent Knight here. Good to see you Brookings guys on the HAMB.

Please post some pics of that body.

 

one of the reasons the bodys are cheaper is because they don't hang the doors or trunk and don't put the skins on them you have to do that. if i am not mistaken. and there is no steel tubing to mount anything too that is a big price factor.
