Hot Rod Gasser Parts

Gassers were those wild drag cars from the 60's that featured outrageously tall stances, big unruly powerplants, and huge slicks to propel them down the track. But just how did these insane creations come to be, and where did they go?

To get the nose-up drag car look that we wanted for our Week to Wicked Nova project, we used one of our Gasser Axle kits. These bolt on in place of the stock front clip and instantly transform the car, making it look like it rolled right out of the 60's!

When it comes to a traditional style build on an early hot rod it just has to be rolling on a solid front axle of some sort. In this buyer's guide we take you through I-beam and round tube solid axles, spindle choices, radius rod needs, and more.

Dive into some of the history and unique differences between Ford and Chevy spindles for solid front axles and what will perform best on your hot rod.

In one week, Jeff, Joe, and Zach, along with Car Craft Magazine, will take an old 1967 Chevy II Nova back in time to the days when Gassers ruled the strip. No dress up here—it will actually be able to race. Meet the build team making it happen!

Today’s we’re doing all the plumbing of the brakes, the fuel system, the trans cooler, but we’re most excited about the 496 big block Chevy backed up by the Powerglide transmission!

We've got a new project in our shop! Check out our 1967 Chevy II Nova that we will transform into a gasser in one week.

This year's Hot Rod Power Tour spanned 5 days across 5 cities from Tennessee to Indiana and we rode along with one of the craziest vintage Mail Trucks you can imagine!

Doug Siemen's Model T is a cool little hot rod. It's even better when you learn that it was built from scratch for a great cause. Check it out!

This Model A coupe was built with family, friends, and a lot of heart.
