X Tech Guy
Why would this be considered a Real world of special limited Cars? Did these cars get the ok from NHRA
to Mount the rearend the way its shown? They are allowing these cars to run what looks to me as a modified
four link set up ? enlighten us please

BTW Im not taking anything away from the owner or the builder of this car Very nice job, Im just curious to know a
a little more on these new Hot Rods

The mini cage around the tach is heftier than the front cage in Fezell's Mustang.

Looks like mine. They all alike. There are 82 bodies as of last week produced including the ones delivered so far.. They are being preped before delivery.

I was wondering if these cars come all togeather or do the owners have to take them to a shop to have them finished? The mustangs are turn-key as far as I have been told. And I wondered how much work the challengers needed to be race ready? Thanks Jerry

Thanks Tom for posting the pics.This is the second car i have had done at Mailloux Chassis and the challenger turned out better than i imagined.I think Andre's shop is canadas best kept secret.I look forward to the challenge of stock racing and i'm sure you all will take it easy on the new guy...lol

Scott, your car looks awesome! Andre Mailloux @ Mailloux Chassis did a great job.

Jeff, I agree that all the bodies do look a like....... LOL ........ But the frame rails and back part of the cage, are much different than the MPR cars. I'm not saying one is better than the other, but each builder has their own style.
MIke at MPR and Andre are good friends.
