Question on chassis sizes
Does anyone know of a chassis that has an 18 inch wheelbase and a 9.5 inch track width? Thank you!

Those are really odd dimensions. The closest I can think of is the Limitless at a 16" wheelbase and 12" wide. Larger scales are just going to be wider. If you already had the body printed, you might have to build something custom (easy if you want to go with a rear/mid-motor RWD setup). If you just have the STL file, I'd suggest scaling it down to something more manageable. Such a long wheelbase with that width is Funny Car territory.

I know it's not so much onroad, but a 1/10 buggy are preeetty close to 9.5" wide.
A long homemade chassi for either a Schumacher or Xray 2wd buggy (they have a separate front kick up, most other brands have a bent up chassis plate so more work to make one at home) with bumpers/body mounts would probably get you running.

I just looked up info on a 1966 Corvair and here is the dimension info I found
Length: 184 in
Width: 69.7 in
Height: 52.8 in
Wheelbase: 108.0 in
Front Track 55.0 in
Rear Track 56.6 in
Assuming the track is the center line of the wheels, with tires installed this measurement would be wider.
Based on the measurements from the original post, the first car that comes to mind is the Traxxas 1/8 scale funny car. This car is close but is a bit too short and a little bit too narrow. Here is a link to the Traxxas car specs...

Another company that makes various drag cars/chassis is RJ speed. Again the dimensions don't like up, but these are "pan cars" so the basic components could be used on a custom chassis to fit the body as needed.

Is it possible that the original post 18" was the total length of the body and not the wheelbase? If that is the case, this would put the car closer to 1/10 scale and there would be any number of chassis that might work. Here is an example of a RedCat 64 Impala Low Rider that has some cool features.

Question on chassis size
It’s either a 1/5 scale or 1/8 scale
