Each of my 3 Insight Chassis are almost totally gutted of everything.

Honda Insight rolling chassis 3 weighs:

810 lbs!

Honda Insight rolling chassis' 1 and 2 have yet to be weighed.

Even though chassis 3 currently weighs only 810 lbs, I am going to be running a new subframe in the back, so the old Insight rear drive is going to be totally removed.
I haven't even started to modify my Insights yet--I just gutted them, and haven't even done that entirely yet! When I'm done, the chassis will weigh in at about 500 lbs and my new drive setup w/ subframe will come in at 500 - 600 lbs--making 1100 lbs total.. That's the goal anyways, it may get more ambitious as I progress..



RobertSmalls:

I'm going to install my new drive train in the rear. More than likely I am going to remove all the floor pans as well and cut off the majority of the front clip that goes beyond the front strut towers.
There will be no interior. Period.

I have almost any Insight part you need.
For $20 I can give you a rear view mirror and a shift knob (manual or auto). Just specify.
I sell airbag covers with my airbags as they are typically damaged in a collision, so I probably won't be able to give you a good deal on that. Sorry..

email me at PGtheXenon@gmail.com if you are interested.
Thanks
