Fatman manufactures a complete 1949-1951 Ford Car Chassis with plenty of upgrade options to make your car perform like you want!

Our frames are built using heavy .188 wall rectangular tubing for more strength and lower cost! They are made to follow the original shape and form to fit with the original body and core support mounts. Expect a 2-3 inch drop from stock with our standard chassis and standard spindles. Air ride, and 2 inch dropped spindles are options to slam the car. Clearance for 3 inch exhaust is provided while maintaining full strength and good ground clearance.
