Who has a Gasser style car ? Stand up and be counted !

Killer bug Craig. We'd love to have a bug or 2 racing with us. To bad there's a whole ocean in between us.

 

Where's Nailhead Terry and the pics of his bad ass Gasser project???? What a slacker.

 

The Green Slime gasser.

 

well maybe me in the future. the pic in my avatar is a photoshop of how i'm gonna build it.

 

Anyone on here have a detailed pic, parts list build to follow to properly install astraight axle ?

 

Speedway motors has all the parts and instuctions. I found them on line in a pdf once from speedway. Search for straight axle instal speedway motors. I also bought plans from someone on e-bay for about 12 bucks that were also very helpful. Speedways catolog has nice tips in it as well on steering options (cross or draglink)
i bought a custome length axle and springs from them for my anglia.
Some advise, the ride height is most of the time too high with the kits. I had my springs re-arched to lower it by about 3 ". I found out (later) that speedway has reverse eye springs avail/ but they are not in the catalog.
They have an online catolog as well.

 

Yep, I had printed the info off Speedways site already but, looking for more info so I can get a good plan of attack made

Thanks !

I have a couple of Gassers, the 40 Chevy ran D/Gas back in the 60's and I have the complete history on the car including pictures, the 55 supposedly raced to but I have been unable to find anything on it's history. I also had the 60 Falcon but it was sold to make room for other projects.

 

Nice toys, wanna come race with us??? Love to have either of those to cars running with the ECG.

More info please: what engine, trans etc???

 

Great additions of Gasser's boys !

Let keep it alive.

 

Here is my 55 in MoKan this year.

 

under construction: was raced back in the day (which was a Wednesday, i'm told, haha). Then lived in a barn, then another barn, now my hands.

 

The 55 looks cool,any more shots and how about some info?

 

69Fury....the falcon looks pretty mean,a good looking car to start with.
