Hi All,
I'd like to introduce my company and product. My name is Shafi and I have started a company for my daughters called 2 Sisters Keisler. The company's mission is to provide niche products and services to the enthusiast market. I own and operate a manufacturing and sales company for muscle & classic car component manufacturing now, and hope to see my young girls take an interest in making parts and managing an enterprise as they get older.
Our first product is a high quality reproduction of the HPE Muskin Dune Cat (circa 1972-74). At this time, we are producing just the bodies. We intend to expand this to included a complete D-I-Y kit with frame and all of the components to fully assemble a Dune Cat go kart, less the engine which can be purchased locally. Our focus with this approach is to first service the folks that have aging, broken or worn out bodies with a high quality brand new body. Then later in the second phase when we have frame/chassis kits, we plan to supply these with detailed video assembly instructions to encourage parents and kids to build these together. The intent is to provide a hands on learning element of what the components in the kit do, how to service them, how to upgrade them, etc.
My girls have been educated in the Montessori system, whereby kids learn by hands on experience lessons physically instead of just reading lessons. I have seen first hand the benefits of this method, and believe that if we get our kids learning and building hands on that they will be more capable and independent people when they reach adult hood.
Onto the new Dune Cats !
We have produced new tooling for the bodies. It is exceptional in quality and is making beautifully finished bodies. Each body is hand laid by American craftsman locally here in East Tennessee - the mecca of fiberglass boat manufacturers. We do these bodies in solid colors and big metal flake color. Big flake bodies get an additional step of black gel coat which hides the underside of the body.
Three (3) layers of fiberglass are hand laid and the body is similar in weight and density to the original HPE Muskin Dune Cat. With today's UV resistant gel, we expect these bodies to last and look great for many years to come.
I am attaching pictures of several bodies for your review.
Regarding price, here is our current pricing as of product launch April 2013:
Body in Solid White or Black - $600
Body in Solid Red or Blue - $650
Body in Big Flake Red, Blue, Silver, Orange - $750
Prices do not include shipping. I am working on how to do this inexpensively and will have more information soon.
If you would like to order, please send me a PM and I will send you payment options (Paypal, Certified Check, Money Order). Or call me at 865-566-0314 9am - 6pm Eastern Mo - Fr.
Note about this post: I had purchased a Vendor Forum subscription, but it was refunded to me today. Apparently "Hent" (an Administrator?) is not taking new vendors right now according to the note on the refund from PayPal.
We hope you like our offerings.
Best Regards,
Shafi, Athena and Natasha
