Shells are cheaper than american hospitals...
Since everyone here is into ghetto why not make one?
Get the rulebook from a racing body and find out what materials they require. Then use a bender to fabricate the hoop and backstays. You can fishmouth the pipes with a holesaw and the plates for the bottom are fairly simple to do. Then weld or get a competent welder to weld it in.
Most of the bolt-in/purchased units I've seen were not worth anything. They frequently divide the main hoop, use a thinner and lighter material and generally build it as a show piece...
