Check out some of the construction pics of an IMCA
Hobby Stock. At Charger Chassis, we have priorities,
and Safety is always #1!! Our selection of materials and
design and construction methods are not just by
seat-of-the-pants. You're getting 30+ years of stock car
building experience! Also, 360 degree welding of all
joints adds to the structural integrity of YOUR car.
Our roll cages are set back to the maximum allowed by
IMCA to take full advantage of the rules, and the seat
mount is 1-3/4" tubing, braced to the door bars, frame
and main cage. This way, if you're hit in the door hard
enough to bend the frame, the seat will move with the
frame and door bars, keeping the driver the same
distance from the door bars, instead of the door coming
to you.

Lighter weight 1-1/4" tubing is utilized in "non-critical"
areas. Superior triangulation is designed into your
Charger Chassis car to add strength, stiffness,
protection, and longevity.
We've been asked alot lately about the lack of an
undercar "X" brace in the frame. It's our belief that the X
does very little for the torsional (twisting) strength of the
chassis. It does help the frame resist getting a
"diamond" effect in the event of a hard front hit, but we'd
rather see the car give some and have the driver walk
away uninjured. If the car does not give, then more of
the energy from the crash will be absorbed by the driver.
Cars can be repaired; drivers take much longer to heal.
If you dont agree with our reasoning for not having an
"X" brace, next time you see Dale Earnhardt Sr, Adam
Petty, Kenny Irwin, or Tony Roper, ask them what THEY
think of cars that don't have enough "give" built in.



We also offer full aluminum services, from rear
firewalls and decks, dashes, tail light panels, fan
shrouds, whatever! Custom bead rolling
available at no extra charge. (We just love a
challenge!)
Check out the rear firewall in this Mustang Mini
Stock....F L A M E S !! All done with a bead roller.
When you order a car, just tell us what you'd like
bead-rolled into the dash and firewall...no extra charge!
We would also be happy to build your youngster a car
for the Hornet class, or any other mini stock class. All
the same construction methods are used, such as
1-3/4" tubing, 4 door bars, etc, to ensure the safety of
your beginning racer! Scroll down for more info. This
Daytona won the Points at Blackbird Bend Speedway in
Onawa, IA in the Lil' Enjuns class!

Available now is our GM Metric car lightweight transmission crossmember. These parts are jig-built to
insure an accurate fit. They bolt in to the stock mounting holes on Monte Carlo, Cutlass, Regal, Grand
Prix & Malibu, and accept the stock transmission mount. The original crossmember weighed in at
around 40 lbs....these are only 7 lbs! Race and crash tested, you can expect years of dependable
performance from this part from Charger Chassis!
Please note: Our crossmember will NOT fit a Metric car that has had the frame "X"ed underneath.

Ordering is easy....you can either send a check or money order to:

Just a few words about our
cars.... first, Thank You for
considering a Charger
Chassis! Second, you're
most likely a racer, and
racers want to win. Let me
state again a point I make in
the text to the right--SAFETY
is always priority #1 here!
Sure, we'd all like to win
every race we start, but
that's not very realistic. The
first thing you should
consider before buying ANY
race car is how safe it is.
This past 5 seasons, Charger
Chassis cars have added up
nearly 50 feature wins.
That's not too bad! But I think
the most important fact is
that there have been 9 of our
cars upside down, and NO
drivers have been injured.
There has been some bent
sheetmetal, and a few bars
replaced, but that is what the
car is for: to give a little so
the driver doesn't have to!
We don't build fast cars, nor
do we build slow cars. What
we do build is a SAFE, stable,
rigid and consistent platform
for YOU to build a fast race
car on. What engine, gear,
shock and spring combo you
run is ultimately your
decision, even though we do
offer a baseline setup for
your car.
Let's face it...not every
chassis built will win a
national championship, but if
you get in an accident, and
you walk away, then we've
done our job. Please keep
this in mind when choosing
your next car.
Thanks ,
Jamie
