This page will showcase the build of our driveadragster rail job, a 160 inch nostalgia sling shot dragster
with a blown small block HEMI engine in it. We started with our base SFI 2.4 Certified frame that is our hottest selling chassis kit and will be building it into one of the coolest old school rails around. Plans are to run our new ChutePack body with the battery and cooling hidden from view to keep the car period looking. Check back often to see which manufacturers are involved with the build up and to see new photos.
