A Little History We started this project because we could not find an old looking car that would tech. Most old chassis needed so much updating it was not worth the work. The newer chassis out there are a mix between modern A-arm, canard, high sitting cars with an engine stuffed up front so they can call it an FED. Not busting on them, just not our cup of Nitro. We wanted a digger that looked like it came from the Garlits, Ivo, Prudhomme era with minor changes so it would tech. We looked and found nothing that turned our crank, so we built a chassis jig and built our own. Our chassis is new with the look of a traditional rail from the 60s. The chassis is built with all SFI specs to tech to 7.50 and up. We now have Nostalgia TOP FUEL available as well. The frame as well as all of the brackets and tabs have been CAD designed. Brackets are CNC laser cut to insure perfect fit every time. All chassis kits come tacked together ready for finish welding. Any options that are purchased come with brackets tacked in place with option installed. We wanted to make a simple old school chassis that you can add a motor and tranny, get it finish welded, and go racing. No buying a “kit” of tubes that is supposed to be bent and fishmouthed correctly, only to find that without a jig, it is near impossible to build it straight and true. We spent months developing the chassis to be easy to finish for the true home builder. You don’t need to be a fab shop to work on our dragster, we did the hard work for you. OUR GOAL WAS SIMPLE: We wanted to bring back the glory days of drag racing when front engine dragsters were KING and you didn’t need a house mortgage to race. We were sick and tired of seeing $30,000-$50,000 cars being built that only the few could afford. My personal car is built with a Small Block Ford (yeah we love Fords) Powerglide, 9 inch rear with 35 spline axles and spool, drum brakes, spoke laced front wheels and Slotted window rear wheels. My budget was $15,000.00 with all NEW parts except rebuilt motor.  We have over 50 passes on it and have run a best of 9.90s at over 140 mph. All with a stock 302 with injection added putting out under 300 hp. Put a mild 350 Chevy or Windsor Ford in it and you will be in the low 9s.   Our injected Ford powered digger 9.95 et with stock short block 302   Click Here for Home Page CEN-PEN Speed Shop is owned by WORM INC 10181 Jonestown Rd, Grantville, PA 17028 (717)-469-9676 worm@slingshotdragsters.com
