We build bespoke chassis and engines for classic cars.

Since opening our doors in 2005, we’ve developed 20 track-tested chassis for GM, Ford and Mopar models, and are constantly doing research and development for new products. We’ve had some very exciting accomplishments in our brief history, such as our first 1000hp twin-turbo street engine in 2006, a 730hp naturally-aspirated pump-gas engine in 2007 and reaching 211mph in the standing mile with a street-car, also in 2007. Our master fabricators build our chassis completely in-house and we continuously prove their performance and longevity by competing in about 15 racing events per season.

Our chassis incorporate modern geometry, materials, suspension components and braking technology into bolt-in full-frame designs. The result is a vehicle that can be setup to drive exactly how you want it to—from track-car stiffness to luxury-car comfort, and everything in between.

We started in Crystal Lake, IL, in a quaint 1600 square-foot facility, out of which we introduced the first bolt-in muscle-car chassis (our GM A-body chassis). We quickly outgrew those cramped quarters and, within a year, doubled the size of our shop, then doubled that, and doubled that. Now, we have 10,000 square-feet in Woodstock, IL.
