1966 Chevelle Twin Turbo Supercharged Street Racecar

The Build

Truly one of a kind, this bad-ass race car is the apex of innovation and building experience. Born out of the memory of Chris Braun's own Chevelle that he raced at Lions Drag Strip in the late 60's, this race car is the epitome of American Muscle. Completely custom built from the frame up with internally gusseted 1/8” wall body channeled-over frame with C5 front suspension and rear cantilevered suspension. Entire frame curves & sweeps on all corners and crossmembers to minimize frame deflection from engine torque also roll/torque steer when cornering. Twin turbos and supercharger with custom fabricated air system. Street legal – runs on 91 octane & E85
