Speaking of buggy chassis questions:
I have a buggy/kitcar chassis that mounts Corvair suspension
components. Made mostly of steel tubing, heavy stuff. No VW or
anything else, specifically designed to mount late model 'Vair
suspension hardware. I asked before, got some suggestions on
where to go looking for info as to who made this thing but didn't
have much luck... saw a lot of VW chassis types but almost nothing
dedicated to 'Vair hardware, and nothing like this thing. Best
info I got was that it may have come from a Chicago
source... possibly sold through JC Whitney back when, or maybe when
they were Warshawsky or whatever.
Got it from another VV list member 100 miles north of me... who
also has limited info on who made it.
I have photos if anyone thinks they can ID the thing and suggest what
sort of body may have been intended to mount on it. This one was
evidently never finished, has no floors or brake lines or throttle
linkage or shifter etc.
