@Stan Galat I believe kitman is now using this subframe in their offerings. I think it is a huge improvement visual and obviously space wise. Envemo accomplished something similar by using the wider Brasília pan which is pretty darn close to the karmann ghia pan. The pan is reinforced, after shortening, with around 1” square channel welded to the perimeter of the pan right in the channel. The fiberglass body has boxed rockers and is bolted right to the pan like the original was. Makes you wonder if the cmc method was overkill.
