Hi Charlie

They have not got a website at present, but if you have any questions I can e-mail them across if you like.

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

Another visit to Southern GT's today, and another chassis under construction, this one manufactured to take a Renault transaxle.
Note the built in rollcage!

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

Watch out for the Southern GT's website which will be coming soon!

They make many of their own parts, as well as being able to source alot of other components.

Hope you all like the pics so far, I will do my best to keep you all posted on their progress.

Bud.

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

Hi Bud

In your first photo, is that the RBT-6 transaxle, or are they rebadging recond ZF 5 speeds?

If it is the RBT-6, please take another few pics from different angles if you get the chance.

Many thanks

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

From what I recall (speaking to them at Goodwood in August), it is a new 25-2 that came from RBT via JP.

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

Do they sell turn keys? If so, what are the prices? and how long for delivery?.

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

Thanks John. I was hoping to see an RBT-6 going into a 40.

The spaceframe looks very neat and strong from Bud's pics, with good attention to detail.

I'm looking more information as it filters out.

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

That is a very sweet looking frame. Now, are there any pictures with a body added?

Cheers

Customer's chassis 005 under construction.

Having trouble posting pictures I will send them to a friend to post for me until I can get things sorted.

Re: New Chassis from Southern GT\'s

I have been asked by Mick from Southern GT's to post a few pics for him as he is having a spot of bother with his downloading of pics at the moment.

Chassis 005 powder coated and ready for panel work
