This customer started off with just a "back-half" ladder bar chassis and roll cage.  We narrowed the existing 12 bolt differential to accomodate his 14" wide tires and wheels.

This customer wanted the rear chassis made with 2X3 square tubing.  Here we have done the measuring to fit the 14" wide tires that will be run on this car.

Note the 1953 Chevy in the background, it's next.

With the subframe connectors in place we can build the roll cage.  This ties the entire chassis together and sets the foundation for a strong race car.

Customer wants us to build a set of headers next with a Stahl flange so he can run a larger tube.

This car runs a 383cid small block and is very consistant and easy to drive.  So far it has run a 6.91 in the 1/8th mile and the owner is looking to get down to 6.70's after final tuning.

Located in Somerville Texas between Austin and Houston.
