Full Version: Is vellios still around?
I am wondering is Vellios still around? They had all kinds of sweet conversion parts. I see that their web site is there but when calling their number I get a disconnnected message. Anyone have info? Did they get bought out? I would be really surprised if they just closed their doors and did not sell off their production line to someone.
I've heard that they are out of business. All I have is hearsay. From what I know, they sold a bunch of stuff to Patrick Motorsports and went away.

Shoot and Patrick motorsports does not sell any of their tricked out side shifter 915 and 930 transmission stuff. I am surprised they did not pick that up.

661-285-5853 is the number that is disconnected. I will give Ed's cell a try tomorrow.
Please let us know if you do get in touch with Ed Barrett (and if the parts are still available).
I like the stuff (even if it did take some rework to make it work). I'm using a Vellios kit in the track car 915 and have another in a box waiting to install in a second 915.
