And now the fun begins, so they say. Currently researching photos of Type "C" chassis to restore my ICW back to original spec. Some background history, it appears that the body panels and my new chassis were one and the same but were separated back in the 1980s, having them back together is...

Arrgh, Fran, I guess I missed you at the shop, I called at 1600 hrs this afternoon, anyway, I'll call you tomorrow morning but please don't throw anything away yet :) Thanks for the heads-up. p.s. I tried PMing but your in-box is full apparently...

Alan, just PM'd you. Rick

Thanks very much, Phil. That seems to correlate with what I've got. Push come to shove, I can always change it back to original Type "C" spec, depending on whether I can obtain said Type "C" suspension bits..., any info/pics you have would be great, much appreciated :)

Hi Fran: I'll give you a call tomorrow afternoon... Thanks, Rick

Looking for front and rear suspension. Thanks, Rick (F3L)

Andy, you are a scholar and gentleman :) Yes, I concur after looking at Kevin's pictures that it is a KVA chassis, albeit with some weird-ass modifications... I'm going to take your suggestion and e-mail Kevin for more info on his build. So now, who's got a set of front and rear...

Thanks, Mark! One thing I'm doing is measuring everything and transposing into CAD, I'd like to have it as a blueprint online so I can fiddle with it using SolidEdge... :)

Thanks for the reply, Mike. I'm wondering about the rear set-up, I think the chassis came from Florida originally so this might be an Intregrity Coach Works set-up. I read somewhere that they were working on using Nissan mechanicals, I believe it was Ian that mentioned that, if I recall.

I was wondering if anyone has seen this particular type of chassis configuration before, note the rear suspension setup (captions to follow): 1427 - Front view, note the missing suspension points on driver's side. 1428 - Close-up of passenger-side front suspension. 1429 - Close-up of front...

Count me in, too, Chris, I'm very pleased to see Quaife producing a transaxle for the community!!

Chris, you've picked my favourite Porsche :) I especially like that 906 in silver, very nice. Good thing I'm already commited with my '40 build, otherwise... I'm also interested in your transaxle but probably set that aside for next year. Best regards, Rick

Hi Fran, sorry I didn't get back to chat with you in Detroit, but it was good to finally meet up with you. Definitely interested in a metal roof section seeing as I'm now working on the car (finally!). Best regards, Rick

I'll PM Roy this weekend...

Thanks for the suggest, however, I've yet to hear back from Goran for over a year now and I believe that one shouldn't bother after numerous e-mails... if you know what I mean :)

Before I go down the path of fibreglass for the above-noted, I'd still like to see if this is still available from SOMEONE!!!!!

Interesting, I was going to check the dimensions out, apparently there's somebody on the West Coast constructing this design...

Wow, Chris, your garage looks just like mine, is it a single...?

No problem, Mark, it was great finally seeing one up close ... :) Glad the weather cooperated for the show, though. Talk soon, Rick

Not to steal Mark's thunder but here's some pics of his debut at the Campbell Ford show this Sunday. I'll leave it to him for any commentary... :) I thought I'd capture both generations in the last shot. Now I have to get off my butt and start working on my '40!!!!!
