These guys are THE leaders:bow: in pro mod chassis building. They just had 3 Pro Mods break into the 240mph zone. They build the chassis's for quite a few of the top names in the sport. So they are constantly busy.

And sometimes a chassis comes in after being put on its lid, and these guys thrash like hell to get those cars back in action. I have been sidelined by 'Mr.Pro Mod' Scotty Cannon a couple of times during my build. Chip King is another who frequents them, he has a BADAZZ 69 Daytona Pro Mod. These are the NASTIEST of all door cars too. Figure the Pro Stockers are in the 205-206 mph zone, these door cars are way faster.It takes a stout chassis to help get them down the track...

But for the quality of work they do, the super fine chassis you get when complete, and the finished product is an absolute stunner.... It's worth the wait.....:bow: :bow: :bow:

Mines almost there.... the end of the stay there is soon over, and it will be handed to me.

Car looks good Jeff, All of the big chassis builders take a long time unless your WJ or Anderson. I have ordered two different cars one Bos and one a Spitzer, and both took almost a year. Let one of the big name pros crash one and the wait get longer

I do know this Charlie Stewart is burning the midnight oil on three dragster chassis, ones a Powerstroke dragster and it will be a really neat car. Expect this one to go to the head of the class as soon as the driver is old enough to start licensing process. Charlie is going to take one more student for the Charlie Stewart Boot Camp of drag racing. I’m a graduate of that class. Along with a few others one student in one of Charles SC dragsters put a World Championship Wally on Charles mantel

Thanks for the compliment Greg.

Yes, it seems the BIG names do get preference at most of the top chassis builders shops..... But again I am excited for the way this racer is taking shape, everything looks first class!:bow: :bow: :rockwoot: :cheer:

I can't wait to shoot the Southern Polyurethane coatings on it to really make it stand out. And the glossy paint samples that Andy (TooMuchBoost) has sent me, I think we will be applying some of the finest gloss coatings on this ride. :rockwoot:
 
Left the homefront at 4 a.m. for a trip out to Vanishing Point today. while enroute some ricer thought he had enough for my Vipertruck LOL :evil LOL Let's just say I watched his headlites fade as I laid into it LOL LOL LOL
