Well, let me clear up any mysteries.  I own Kitzkrieg rights , I am the solo owner  ,now. Keeping the www.kitzkrieg.com website up for now but will soon change it to www.kitmanmotors.com   Parted ways with previous partner, AC.  Reformed is as KitMan Motors, LLC.  I retain all of the molds and been investing in refining the chassis, new subchassis, and molds.

The fiberglass bodies bolt on to the subchassis, ( no bonding), Coupe and Speedster bodies have the back seat bonded in with metal inserts in the rocker panels, door frames and A pillars so that the hinges go to into metal on both sides.   The Chassis and SubChassis fit both the Speedster and the Coupe.  LHD and RHD are available. Working on making custom Coupe door window frames and 1/4 windows out fo stainless steel. I will have a tube chassis for both models in about a month.  Finishing touches are being worked out.

The Spyder development is "on Hold" as I have a few other projects to complete first. I have a TIG welded 550 chassis that is a LC ( long Cockpit) model that lengthens the seating cockpit 5.5 inches and preserves the rest of the look front and back of the Spyder.  ( Need to CAD scan the body and chassis at SEMA garage first)

My Green Coupe is about to lose its " Garage Queen" status and finally be done after 2 years and many mechanics being involved.  Why is it these "projects" take forever ( but are awesome when finished??)

I just retired February from my 37 year "day job" as a dentist and have more time and money to play with.  KitMan Motors is my focus now and plan to be out at some Southern California events along with Jonathan my "#1 guy " in my business. 

If you want to reach us directly, we will  gladly  answer any other inquiries.

I forgot to reply that I just sell the bodies, subchassis and shortened VW chassis/ tunnel with new pans..  I do not make turnkey models.  If you want a turnnkey Speedster, Coupe or Spyder, I have a good relationship with RockWest Racing ( 10 miles from my facility) and they build cars for customers who want my "performance replica cars".  They do a nice complete job in a few months, rather than a few years as other builders seem to end up taking.  They can do VW or Subaru engines.

All the Best,

Chris

OK, so you were partners with "Mr. AC" (Alan Cassels) who was part of the management at CCW, the mess we all watched unravel a year or two ago in San Diego. He made a feeble attempt to promote KitzKrieg here on the site, but frankly, his and his cohorts reputations were so bad that I don't think anyone on the site, at least the core group, did any business with him.

I hope you are successful. Frankly, I also hope that you don't do business as Cassels did while at CCW. Our group is always interested in new vendors, but, those that have proven to be untrustworthy or crooked tend to get blasted pretty hard on this forum.

Thunder Ranch sells off to Carrera Coachworks, being run as part of a 501c3 known as the Heartland Coalition in San Diego.

Carrera Coachworks changes it's name to Custom Coachworks.

Custom Coachworks assets are bought by Rock West.

Allan Cassels re-emerges from Custom Coachworks "running" Kitzkrieg.

Kitzkrieg re-emerges under the control of Dr. Chris Kleber announcing that Cassels is out of the picture and that Kitzkrieg is a pure kit car company, no turn key cars.

Kitzkrieg recommends finished cars from Rock West if you don't want to build yourself.

Hoping that Kitzkrieg is successful!

Thanks for the encouragement. I was a silent investor that was duped in many ways.  A real cast of characters in the past. I am going forward and you can count on Jonathan and me to be straight up on all business. Quite a learning curve! Cheers,
Chris
