Restoring a Schumacher Cat 2000 E.C.

[Durango]

Hi guys,

I bought this car for my collection, as a cat 2000:







It's on great condition, very clean.

However, I noticed that some parts are different, as eg the shock towers, body, position of the shocks...the top plate and bottom plate are made ​​of carbon, not the shock towers. Front dampers are platic made, rear of aluminum.

Can someone help me and say exactly what cat it is?

It's a cat 2000ec with cat 2000 front suspension arms.
Should have laydown suspension arms to make it complete and a bumper is missing.

Hi guys,

I disassembled the cat, cleaned it and installed some new parts (front shocks, rod ends, rear arms, bumper...)

Now I have to wait for the new body, undertray, wing and wheels. Still looking for some bits (new front lay-down arms, speed controller plate...)

I wonder if the rod ends on the shocks are the right ones? Looks to short...

[Durango]

PS: some ideas for the paint job!??

[MattW]

That front end definitely isn't right!! The shock shafts don't look right to me.

[Durango]

Yes, I also noticed that...the shock shafts AND the rod ends look too short...

There were short, medium and long shock shafts? The medium shock shafts should be the right ones.

[MattW]

Should be medium shafts, and the rod ends should be the same as the ones on the end of the turnbuckles.

[Durango]

I will try to find some shock shafts...should not be a problem!

[Durango]

Today I got a few parts more...





including a few rare parts...







Also SST Parts!! These red carbon fibre parts are simply awesome!



And a lot of screws!



Because I've already got enough spare parts, I plan to build a second cat 2000 and a SST chassis! (more on this in another thread)

Hi, does anyone have a Schumacher cat 2000 ec for sale? If so how much thanks!

Hi
You've got the rear alloy housing already. The upper ones are rare.
You don't need those heat sinks with the alloy housing by the way.
