Nostalgia Chassis
Square Tube Chassis & Fiberglass Floor
Chassis & floor shown separately, but only sold as a package.
Nostalgia chassis & floor $1,111.34
The price requires a stock VW torsion in exchange
The 80" wheelbase Nostalgia chassis & fiberglass floor was designed to compliment the line of fiberglass bodies that Berrien Buggy manufactures. It's stronger than a stock pan, plus saves time and allows tunnel access from underneath that you don't get with a stock chassis.
The Nostalgia chassis can be used with any body made to fit on a stock Beetle pan that has been shortened 14 1/2" and uses stock pedal placement.
The fiberglass floor features a ribbed design for added strength. The shiny, black, gel-coat finish won't rust and doesn't need to be painted.
The chassis is made of square tubing, with a 2" main frame & 1-1/2" infrastructure, adding an extra 1-1/2" of lift to the body for increased tire clearance. It features body mounting holes that are pre-drilled, sealed and recessed so that the bolts do not protrude below the chassis.
The clutch cable tube, master cylinder mount, pedal mount and seat track mounting brackets are all factory installed, as well as the four front clamps that weld to the chassis. In addition, the fiberglass floor is pre-drilled and bolted in place.
The Nostalgia chassis comes standard with:
8 front-end clamps w/bolts & nylock nuts
shift coupler inspection plate
a sandblasted & capped stock VW torsion
tube for clutch cable
tubes for emergency brake cables
brackets for mounting:
master cylinder
pedal assembly
shift tube w/bushing
