Vehicle description
Base Roller
By far our most popular package, with the Base Roller platform we take care of all the difficult work for you so you can focus on the fun stuff. While the roller is being built, (4 to 5 months) the customer prepares his driveline. This can be installed the day the roller shows up at your door. This allows you to focus on the finesse of assembling the rest of the build your way.
Our GT Reproduction is based on the ZSR Chassis. The ZSR chassis is High Tech simplicity. We started with a clean sheet of paper and designed a straight forward solution. Our suspension geometry was designed by experienced race engineer Jim Griffith. Jim domintated Formula Atlantic with drivers such as Patrick Carpentier, and Buddy Rice. After consulting with Jim, we realized the Corvette suspension was well suited for what we were trying to do. Combined with it’s availability and cost, it proved to be the perfect solution for our needs. Jim redesigned the geometry to suit our mid engine configuration and the almost 1000 lb reduction in weight over the stock Corvette. In the 1960’s, vehicle suspension geometry was designed around tires with extreme sidewall deflection. The tires of today have little or no deflection and the suspension needs to work with that. The trend in recent years has been around “Zero Scub Radius”. This is why you see wheels with deep back spacing working with suspension that has zero or should we say minimum scrub radius. Zero Scrub Radius simply means that the king pin axis intersects the ground at or near the center of the tire patch. The relationships between the tire manufacturers, the race engineers and the chassis designers is the pulse of motor racing. The results of those relationships feeding each other and advancing technology, has ended up in every GT Reproduction.
At GT Reproductions we offer modern technology with classic styling. At the heart of every GT Coupe is our ZSR Chassis, a semi monocoque/ tubular steel space frame with aluminum skin. using modern zero scrub radius technology, taking full advantage of the current generation tire. Standard features include rack and pinion steering, with fully adjustable camber, caster and bumpsteer. Suspension geometry has been engineered by Race Car Designer Jim Griffith. Our chassis uses Corvette C5/ C6 suspension. Our Coupes also come standard with a high quality, hand laid fiberglass body manufactured using state of the art open mold technology. Highest quality materials are used for distortion free panels. gt-reproductions.com Complete Fiberglass Body includes: Complete Semi Monocoque Frame includes: Class A gel coat finish Fully welded in our chassis fixture mild steel tubing with Nose.
