any first gen drag cars on here ?

Im looking at building a 1st gen for drag racing and wondering if anyone carries stuff like HD control arms for rear / roll cages...ect.

I've seen a couple first gens in the 9's with stock chassis on fullboost.com.au and wondering what kinda stuff is available for these cars or if I'd have to fab everything

I'd be limited to slick size with stock wheel well so 60 ft probly wont be but so great but will need it to hold up to alot of abuse

thanks...RED

There are lots of places that build cages for them.

Every road racing car has to have a cage in them, so they aren't hard to come by. Autopower is the popular purchsed one, others are custom.

Not sure about control arms, or what rules you are trying to stick to, but most heavy dudty drag guys also switch to a ford 9" or something for the diff.
