Yes it was a long wait but was worth it. Went to Eric shop and BS for about 2 hours. I could have stayed longer and pick his brain for more knowledge haha. Great guy to deal with.

We had a little different circumstances. I wanted silver and that is a special color. I think it would of been a lot faster if it wasnt for that.

I ordered mine in the early part of June. The wait time was 4-6 weeks. I dropped MWC a PM to check on the status and there are a few ahead of me.

Yeah I am the worlds worst at waiting. If I order something on the net. Im like I need it now. Anyway it took a long time for our stuff. But we had a special color, I think he rebuilt one of ours because he didnt like the way it Turned out. He also was trying to get them done at the same time since we live 5 hrs away were all going to ride up together and pick up 3 at the same time. Eric looks very busy had as many cars torn down in the shop as you could. You cant rush perfection

I am glad you guys are all happy with everything, an yes the housings sat here for some time while we was waiting on silver powder coat to go in. We don't control powder coat times unfortunately as we farm that work out and are at their mercy to get stuff done based on how busy they are.

It has been a crazy but a great year so far, I do not think most manufactures of parts or even steel expected this kind of economy turn around as everyone was down on inventory an it has taken longer to get supplies than normal this year.

We are a small personable shop as many know and don't have room for huge overhead like some of the bigger places do. One of the differences with us though is you can almost reach us any time or day of the week and if Sunday is the only day you can get here to pick up your items we will do what ever it takes to make that happen as you can see..

We appreciate the kinds words from our customers and being understanding. We will always try and do what it takes to make you happy one way or another.

Yes we do installs, cages, chassis work, and many other things here. If you can imagine it, we can build it. We are a full functioning chassis & performance shop. We are also direct with most manufactures and are able to sell parts if needed.

We have done many one off things for customers over the years and currently building things to fit their needs. We can build things out of aluminum, stainless steel, and working on doing stuff out of composite like ram air kits.

We do lexan window installs, fiberglass body panels, and fire breaks if needed. We are building a custom chiller box for one customer and doing a sump in a stainless steal gas tank for another customer that has a blown 69 Camaro.

If anyone has any questions or needs just ask.
