Modified 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!

Scott's "Nemesis" '55 is a time machine that transports everyone around it back to the glory days of drag racing.

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.

Starting with a Speedway Motors Gasser Axle Suspension Kit and our 9-Inch Housing with 3.89 gears, the Speedway Motors Build Team and Car Craft Magazine build the Chevy II Nova Gasser a rock solid foundation.

Our Week to Wicked Nova makes some serious power. We selected a few parts that will put all that power to the ground and withstand the abuse.

This veteran of the legendary "gasser wars" of the 60s looks right at home in the Museum of American Speed.

We plan to run our 1967 Chevy II Nova hard, so we picked a driveshaft that could keep up. Watch this video to learn more about custom length driveshafts from Speedway Motors.

This year, the Speedway Motors SEMA booth will host Ron Ernsberger's radical Willys built by the Tin Man's Garage. It's a Hemi-powered hot rod with some classic street rod elegance thrown in, and there's much more going on here than meets the eye...
