Topic : Kathleen's new S2 chassis

Thanks Kevin for starting this thread. For those of you who don't know this car, here is a recent picture.

The car is currently Subaru powered, but has a Type 1 VW tranaxle that has concerned us since we converted it from VW power. This chassis will take care of that problem, plus several others we are having. Tom

Topic : Kathleen's new S2 chassis

Well like many cars before this one it is going to get recycled and turned into a street assult machine. When finished this chassis will feature a full Mendeola True performance A-arm front end, complete with our 1.1 inch, zero scrub drop spindles, a full true track rear suspension and a Mendeola MD5 five speed gear box with limmitted slip diff. Follow the story and see how Kathleens Manxter gets better yet again. If you've seen her car you'll know that there is little room for improvement.

I really like your build. I am building a Manxster 2+2. Can you give me some specs on your wheels and tires? What make, what wheel sizes and what tire make and sizes?

Topic : Tom & Kathleens S2 chassis

After more delays (none of which were Mendeola's or Kevin's fault) the chassis and Kick-Out SS kit arrived toady. I was able to check out the work on the chassis and it is very good. I just bought a set of 944 Turbo brakes off "The Samba" so I will be doing a brake update as part of the build. Nice job Kevin. Tom

Topic : Tom & Kathleens S2 chassis

Tom,

Your right, we are pretty much done untill we receive the body from the Meyers. We have to pick up the shocks and springs as soon as we get word that the body is done. We just don't want to have the shocks sitting here getting old and with no movement (not real good for the seals).

I will post somemore pictures later.

Mika, did you have anything you would like to see, or questions I can answer????

I think Kevin is pretty much done with the chassis. I am waiting for Bruce Meyers to finish the Kick-Out SS kit. The chassis and kit will then be shipped to my home in Connecticut where the real fun starts. The engine & transaxle are waiting. I do not expect to finish the build until Spring of 2011. Tom
