The blue Vogel Racing sand car is back on the fixture table and being reworked in-house: a new roof line and rear tube for more cockpit room, hand-fitted tube notches, and new custom trailing arms.
In the Shop
Notes from the bench, straight from the shop floor.
Reworking the roof line and rear tube to open up the cockpit.
Hand-fitting tube notches and getting the rear shocks mounted.
Custom trailing arms built on a friend's jig, paired with Tatum 934 inboard hubs and DWT single beadlock wheels.
Engineering
Vogel Racing is about custom engineering, specializing in fabrication and engine tuning. Chassis, suspension and engines get built and tuned in-house, then proven on the sand.
Meet Scott
In his own words, Scott Vogel is a Vegetable Farmer, fabricator and Every thing boosted!
and metal fabrication, business owner and boost Dr.
That hands-on approach runs through every build: tube cut and notched by hand, fitment checked again and again, and parts made when the right part doesn't exist.
Hand-fitted notches, reworked roof lines and rear tubes, chassis built from scratch.
Custom trailing arms, shock mounting, and inboard hub setups.
LS and big-block Chevy platforms.
New in the Shop
Scott has a new Dynocom hub dyno in the shop. Book time with Scott to get your machine on the dyno.
