Buschur's Quick-Release Harness Bar Final Production Run
bump for the last chance any of you guys will be able to run a removable bar!!!!
This ends Jan 20th, 2012!
kyoo,
First, I didn't know you were going to put together a thread. Thanks for doing it.
Next, why the price hike, was asked?
There is no "price hike". The $475 price is the price we sold the bars at. The discounted price we blew them out at was, as I already explained, the price difference from our chassis guy who builds them because he was pissed off he was sitting on the bars. So that was cost of his material and absolutely NO PROFIT OR LABOR FEES FOR ALL HIS WORK ON HIS END.
This is how this stuff works and some of you will get it or you won't.
First we have to take my car apart to fit everything. Measurements, test fits etc., both time on my end and Gary's (Gary Reese from Reese Chassis) end. The bar is made of chrome moly tubing and is the LIGHTEST HARNESS BAR ON THE MARKET. The bar is completely and beautifully TIG welded, not some quick ugly booger MIG job on it. The bar is powder coated your choice of color. The end joints are milled internally to cut weight. The pins are aircraft grade and made in the USA along with the rest of the bar and components. I am not, my employees are not and Gary is not some cheap *** $1 per hour sweat shop laborer and the parts chosen and used to build this are not cheap mild steel or low grade fasteners. Quality parts cost money. The lightest parts cost money. Innovative products take thought and research, there is no other quick removable harness bar on the market. Everyone else built their junk the same as the first guy and built it out of heavy mild steel with no thought of weight savings, no thoughts of how ugly their welding was or how ****ting their paint was on the bar, let alone offered a choice of colors.
So the bottom line is, I have my bar in my car and can't be happier with it. If anyone would like a LIGHTWEIGHT, QUALITY, POWDER COATED QUICK RELEASE BAR in there car then we will build them again. We are not, however, asking Gary to do all his work for free again.
The price is $475 for the bars. IF we get orders for 10 of them I would do them for $450.
If I come across with a bit of an attitude, well that's me. It bothers me though when I feel like I am nearly being accused of being a crook over the pricing when the fact is the only guy who got screwed was Gary who built all the parts and sat on them from lack of sales.
There are bars on Ebay for about $100 from what I understand. If the price of a quality bar is too much, there are options of course.
For those of you that want the bars, thank you for choosing quality USA built parts.

You may have noticed in the "blow-out" thread that "quick release" was never mentioned by me. This is why.
Just wanted to throw that out there.
To also add to this... the blow-out pricing did NOT include the quick release pins. It included standard assembly hardware. People who purchased were able to add the pins for an additional $35 if they wanted them.

If we get 10+ by two weeks from now in this (which I don't think will be a problem), the price difference isn't something to squabble about when he's going back to RE-produce these bars, which are and probably always will be the only quick-release harness bar on the market - no one else will put in the time for a niche product like this one for an old chassis. And definitely not at this quality.
Like probably most of you guys, this wasn't the next thing to do on my "to do" list for the car but given this is the LAST chance to own a harness bar with the convenience of removing it quickly and without tools for the 99% of the time the car is on the street, I just could NOT let it go (you can see my old posts whining about it in the chassis thread)
It does not come with belts. If you go to our site the options are there. You do not have to buy the belts from us, I chose the best belts and they are expensive. There are tons of cheaper belts out there than what I used but the ones I use are one of the only road race legal 4 points made.
Good point Jarrod, so we can update the pricing.
If you guys want our bar WITHOUT the quick release pins then $445 would be the price of the complete bar kit.
$475 with quick release pins, that is how we list it standard as that's how it was designed to make it worth buying.
If we get 10 or more guys the pricing would be $420 with normal bolt in fasteners and $450 with the quick release pins.
