The stock wheelbase (95 1/2″) Genesis chassis and fiberglass floor were designed for use with our Genesis four-seat body. It is considerably stronger than a stock VW floor pan. As well as allowing tunnel access from underneath, which you cannot achieve with the stock chassis. The fiberglass floor features a ribbed design for added strength. The gloss black gel-coat finish will not rust and needs no painting. The chassis is constructed with new mild steel tubing, which consists of 2″x 2″ main rails & 1 1/2″ infrastructure, (square & round), adding an extra 2 1/2″ of body lift for increased clearance. The larger main rail tubing also adds increased strength to compensate for the longer wheelbase. Threaded body mounting holes are provided for ease of mounting. 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 hold the VW front end assembly. In addition, the fiberglass floor is pre-drilled and bolted in place. A narrowed rear torsion area (swing axle only) is also available.
