R-D Racing Cross-frame Gp???
I've had a couple of recent requests for a Cross-frame Gp, so here's what I can do.
If we can get 6 confirmed orders, I'll do kick off a Gp at $320.00 each and run it through the end of March.
http://www.r-dracing.com/CROSS-FRAME.htm
With this Gp, I'm also going to offer a new hybrid Cross-frame. It is basically the same frame without the center bridge plates. The installer will have to weld the center section together. I have installed a couple Cross-frames this way on racers to give them increased ground clearance and they have been very pleased. Pricing will be the same as the standard Cross-frame.
Please give me a call to take part of the Gp or if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Dave

Here's a bump for you Dave...
I have the Cross Bar and I can vouch for it's functionality... I owned my previous Vette for 5 years without removing the targa top because the body flex was so bad...
After adding the Cross Bar, I almost never put the top back on...
The Cross Bar now sits on my garage floor waiting to be mounted to my new 96...

Hi Dave,
Back when I bought my camber brace I asked if these were an upgrade for verts (that already come with one) or just for coupes. I seem to remember you telling me that they would not mount to a vert.
Did I understand that right?
And, will your new hybred work (and, would you think it would be any better than the stock piece)?

The hybred will work also if you have access to a welder to install it.
