Procat

[lost?]

Won myself a Procat from ebay over the weekend, fairly local so i collected earlier today. Bit of a project, will be a runner.
No doubt i will be asking for plenty of advice over the coming weeks
It appears to have a few modifications and parts swapped out for bosscat parts.
Came with a box of spares which appear to be most of the origional parts from the car.

Started to strip it down already to inspect for any damaged parts and to see what im up against. Current electrics wont be required any more.

Looks to have some nice homemade metal rear arms, slipper clutch and u1304z 4wd truck and saloon body mount kit.
Few very helpful guys on facebook vintage schumacher page (anyone on here?) pointed out its also got bosscat hubs, wishbones, camberlink plate. Gearbox heatsink, possibly a mms front diff and an mms rear shock tower amongst the spares.

Coming apart nicely, only problem ive encountered so far is a snapped top deck. I was aware there had been a repair as the seller was honest about this in his listing.
So he first part on my shopping list is a new top deck. Been advised fibre lyte do a carbon fibre one, anyone here used them? They the best option?

plenty of spares...and a bit of bedtime reading

Yeah, I think a few of the FB group will pop up on here. The rear shocks are bosscat works. The suspension plastics are pretty much all bosscat, the rear arms I'd guess are home made.

It is indeed a MMS front diff, and I wouldn't be surprised if you find an MMS rear diff as well (especially as there is a std one in the box!) Bosscat slipper (which a lot of people have been asking about recently) as well.

Checkout peakey's xls build, he got his chassis set through fathead on here, the top plates are the same and the main chassis is no problem as he can use my new built procat for the template if needed👍
I got a fibrolite main chassis for my bosscat works they look nice but are not made of the best carbon sheet tbh
