The chassis team at Superior Glass Works draws upon decades of street rod experience and uses the finest components from Kugel Komponents, Heidt’s, TCI, Pete & Jakes, Wilwood, Dutchman and others to create a custom chassis that meets your needs. Our full-service chassis shop produces Complete Rolling Chassis for our fi berglass street rod bodies or your existing steel or fi berglass body. Available for most of the popular Chevy and Ford cars and trucks from the 1920’s through the 1950’s.

Superior Glass Works builds complete four-wheel independent show chassis, basic perimeter frames, or whatever you specify. We most commonly install TCI, Heidt’s, and Kugel Komponents independent front-ends, but you can also choose a Pete & Jakes solid front axle or AirRide. Out back, Ford 9-inch rear-ends are built specifically for your chassis and body combination, and these can be hung with parallel leaf springs, four-bar with coil-over shocks, or air bags. For the ultimate in show and go, a Kugel, Heidt’s, or a Corvette independent rear can be installed. Again, AirRide can be fitted and our experts can provide the ride height
you are looking for through component selection and frame modifications. The Power Brake Package includes installation of the power booster, the master cylinder, and the brake pedal. Many options are available that allow us to build a chassis that matches your project goals and budget. Popular options include running steel or stainless steel brake lines, upgrading to disc brakes in the rear, and various levels of polishing for the suspension components. Let us know your motor and transmission choice and we’ll install the appropriate mounts.
Our chassis are built on heavy, permanent, model-specific jig fixtures, guaranteeing a true, straight, and square chassis every time. If desired, most may be used with an original steel body. All rails are laser cut or stamped from 10-gauge pickled and oiled (P&O) steel, and fully boxed with the same. An engineered X-member or K-member fabricated from 1.5-inch round tubing, plus the core support and the cross members, provide the structural strength necessary to handle typical street rod horsepower.

Superior Glass Works understands that each car is different, which is why we don’t pre-build chassis or sell them in “stages.” (Stages are for acting, not building hot rods!) Each is a CUSTOM CHASSIS - built to your specs.  Select a chassis from the list to the right for make and model specifications and options.  You can also download our catalog for Perimeter Frame, Complete Rolling Chassis, and chassis option and upgrade prices. We strongly recommend, however, that you call so we can personally discuss your project needs and provide you with an accurate, custom quote.
