Rogue Element Components Alloy Chassis for Sand Scorcher

OK afficianados of the venerable SRBs, Here It Be: Since I did only 10 chassis for the Ultra-Rare Scorcher Collector’s Edition, people have been buggin’ me about why I didn’t do a chassis for the average SRB guy. Well, now that I’m back up to snuff, here they are- Fully Machined SRB Chassis (Chassises? Chassi?) to really set off that beastie.

People also suggested that I make ’em for other cars than just the Scorcher, so now is the chance- You can have ‘Sand Scorcher’ (Shown,) ‘Rough Rider’, Buggy Champ’, or ‘F-150′ milled into the bottom (It is my understanding they are interchangeable, but make certain just to be safe.) Be advised that you’ll have to Email me (chris@rogueelementcomponents.com) and MAKE SURE I know what you want, or you will get a chassis that says “TOY CAR’. Or something worse: Anyway, I hope I’ve scared you into action!

These are fully-Machined units: No bends! Perfect for shelf Queens, vintage racing, & reasonable running: Big-Air chaps may want to stay stock. These are by no means weak, but I know how some of you drive, and you do so at your own risk as these are not replaceable later! 6061-T6 Alloy, they are satin glass-bead finish with all the details- Bevels, Flames, Engraving, etc. left Shiny for contrast. I take a lot of material off of these and the work is considerable, but they really are sweet even if the pics suck since I’m not Mr. Photographer. All screw heads are fully countersunk and smooth, and all but the 3 fat’uns in front are replaced with Stainless Flathead screws (Included.) This is a prototype, so as usual any little imperfections will be fixed: Production units will be much nicer.
