Hot Rods Chassis Research Dragster sees light of day

We got the dragster out yesterday for a little day light.... Then it rained!

Bob Hilton worked on the Chassis, body and custom headers.... Brandon painted and lettered the car!

This is a REAL Chassis Research LW-106. With orginial quarter elliptical front springs, chrome front axle '37-'48 spindles, Blown SBC with Fresh Hilborn Two Port, 8-3/4" Mopar.

 

Looks great! Can't wait to see some shakedown video, nice job!

 

Shakedown will be at the Jalopy Showdown Drags!!!

 

Looks bitchin.....turned out great

 

Thanks to you!!!!!

My brother thinks it looks naked and needs more lettering.

 

Any plans to turn Fuel into Smoke?

 

Fantastic work!!!! Do a burn out.

 

We need to address the 50 year old M/H's .... Not going to get any smoke out of those boys.

 

Sweet!!!!

 

Very cool!

 

" Not going to get any smoke out of those boys."

You might for a few feet!!!

 

Very nice looking car! The right hand steering isn't seen too often, what steering box is in it? Bob

 

Your car came out Great!!! Nice job Tim Jones

 

Your C-R LW-106 came out just as I knew it would...PERFECT.

 

Right hand steering is unique to the LW-106.. We are using a Ross Box

 

Thanks Rich!!

 

Looks awesome...real nice job!!

Could you post some close ups of the front end set-up you built?
Thanks!

 

This is out of the Chassis Research Catalog

 

This is how the front looked when we got the chassis two years ago.

 

That's all I had on my computer.... If want more, just say so.
