FRANK KENT MOTOR COMPANY DEALERSHIP

FORT WORTH, Texas, April 3, 2008 - Fort Worth-based Speed Fab-Crete, a 58-year-old full-service commercial builder specializing in design-build applications, has been selected to build another Frank Kent Motor Company dealership in Fort Worth, Texas.

Speed Fab-Crete will use its precast concrete wall building system in construction of the new 15,452-square-foot Frank Kent Buick-Pontiac-GMC dealership. Completion is slated for winter 2008.

The new dealership will incorporate the latest Buick, Pontiac and GMC "national branding" by architectural design and use of the automakers' logo themes. The building will contain a spacious 3,600-square-foot showroom, a drive-thru, three-work bay service department, sales offices, and a customer lounge with children's play area. A new quick lube center is also adjacent to the three service reception lanes for customer convenience.
