Q: Speedster (esque) 4-seater on FL IRS chassis

FM Former Member
Howdy all,
While surfing the 'net a few weeks ago, I came across a website from Canada that had a speedster-like kit that fit on a full-length VW Type I chassis and seated four. I spoke about it later with my wife and she said "did you send them an email? Sounds pretty cool to me!". Aaargh! I can't find the site now and I didn't bookmark it. Thanks for anyone who can point me in the right direction!

There is either Intermeccanica, but I am not sure if that is it since they make their own frames and only 2 seater. Out of Vancouver. Then there is http://cswspeedster.com/features.html, but this CSW company gets posted a few times and we ask if anyone has bought one and no one comes forward. Again, I don't see the 4 seater here either and it looks to be custom frame and Honda engine. Not sure if this is someones project that never got off the ground.

Yup, Haler concepts it is. I have 2 children (2 and 6) and they like to be involved in the car thing. Currently, the "luggage shelf" in the rear of the old Bradley is not really the safest spot in the world for them. I will look into the speedsteresque Haler car.

Then perhaps I will shoehorn in the Subaru EJ2.5T motor and Kennedy adapter plate planned for the Bradley into the other.....eh, mebbe not.

I am actually surprised no one tried that before. It might be a little easier to do. (well, maybe not). The proportions do look quite odd though....

Like the banham idea of a front drive speedster I don't think it will catch on with enough people to pay off the molds.

I could be wrong....
