Found a few places that sell the fiberglass targa bars, but no before and after pictures. Know where there are some pictures? Thanks. |

But the weight is high in the car. Plus, the cage is already taking some of that load. I would think a lower brace across the top of the firewall together with scab plates from the firewall to the cage should be enough for that area.
Your cage does tie into the rear shock towers, right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Andy |

I am also eliminating the (upper) front hoop, so nothing will be in front of the driver. Will be adding a down tube from the (top of) back hoop to the top of the front hoop, which resides below the streering wheel. I already have big scab plates and a triangle forward to brace the front hoop. I'll post a picture. [ |
