Apart from production and installation of rollcages, RETHEY TEAM undertake modifications of the bodywork in cars that will take part in races, cup series and rallies of any category. These modifications consist mainly of reinforcements, embedding of particular elements, building-in points for fixing/fastening. We offer a complete set of services for our customers, so we can undertake all tasks of preparation before modifications and also the final stages of polishing, if required.

Discounts:
In case of contracts for big volume of work (eg. complete overhaul of bodywork), we may give some price reduction of 5-10%, depending on the nature of work to be done and the total value of order. Our offer of discount varies in each individual case!

It is highly recommended to clean thoroughly the bodywork before starting any job of modification for reasons of weight reduction, fire protection, and for the following tasks of welding, fixing, fastening, etc. to be implemented properly. If the bodywork in not damaged and without corrosion, we do the cleaning using hand-held tools. In that case, blasting is optional. If the bodywork is damaged, poorly repaired or very corroded, after cleaning by hand we have to carry out blasting.

- We can give an approximate offer price for repairs even based on photos you may send us about well-visible and easy-to-estimate damages. We may correct our estimation and offer on site.
- For those damages that become visible only through dismantling and cleaning we can give you our price offer together with pictures of the damaged point(s). Work will be continued only after your acceptance of offer.

Jobs with steel plates necessary for the embedding of the rollcage are calculated at the same fee rate.

Re-welding needs depend on the original construction and age of the bodywork and on the rollcage to be mounted.

Reinforcements needed depend on the original construction and age of the bodywork and on the rollcage to be embedded. The old, historic bodyworks probably need overhaul reinforcement on the points that their chassis is mounted and on the points of greater disstress undergone during a rally.

Turrets very often serve as support points where rollcages are mounted and fixed, so their reinforcement is closely related to embedding the rollcage, and it is recommended to perform the two tasks in interaction.

There are various modifications allowed by the regulations that appy to each sports car category, so modifications may be simple, often implemented ones, up to complete re-structuring of the body. Our offer price depends on the estimated time needs for design and implementation.
