Who is the best company to build the body for a custom kit car? I already have the CAD designer but I need a company that will build the body and interior. I looked into SIEMENS for the interior. Thanks in advance. What chassis would you choose to build on also.

1. NAERC
2. D&R
3. IFG
4. INTERCLASSIC - overseas

Any other suggestions would be helpful.

NAERC has the best lamborghini Diablo chassis on the market anything better is real!. However its very expensive just for a chassis with not engine and trans and such. IFG i think better because it already has sispention arms and brakes and all you need is the engine. D&R has the best bodys ( my opinoin) they are great and i herd alot of people say they got great service. I dont know anything about INTERCLASSICs can someone help him out please?!

why are repilcas so expensive?!Go to Top of Page

None of the kit car builders you listed will build a custom body, (that I know of). They offer only their own kits. If you want a company that will build a custom body from your CAD files try these guys:

I hope I was helpfull =)

They are nice but according from other people who have bought there body kit they have had poor service. Say away from lamboshop ADL cory davis kits and rskdesign goto www.kitcentral.com and ask some builders for advise because thats what im currently doing and its helped me alot.

If you are interested in a chassis let me know and I will send you a couple pics of the ones I build. They are for a Diablo body with the fiero suspension. I have an ad on this site for one from a while back. It is NOT an RKS design chassis I build them. I have a rolling chassis I'm building for a guy now that you are more than welcome to come see, If your close enough. Or I can take pics for you. If you need any questions answered feel free to shoot me an e-mail. ljms15@sc.rr.com

The RKS Chassis is a terrible design and bad quality to boot. The one that I purchased from him is only good for an oversized and awkward boat anchor. In my opinion, I would stay clear of this company.

I have noticed that NAERC has not had any legal problems from making a exact Diablo replica chassis. How is that? Could I get away with making an exact replica Ultima chassis?
