QUOTE Spray it flat black, put on an old skool leather helmet and some WW1 aviation goggles and go have fun. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Absolutley! Thats how im getting it to my buddys shop to weld. Satin black is a must. QUOTE When I raked my windshield I made a template to get things correct and even on both sides, That is actually where i got the idea in the first place. And plan on using your interior cage as a guidline for mine as they are both somewhat vertically challenged. Is there any thing you would do differently if you were to build the cage again?? QUOTE I am sure you could use the wing windows to do the same. I would also temporarily mock up the rubber between the window and frame to make sure things meet up correctly before you weld anything in place. I also have some step by step pics on how I re-attached my windshield frame in the middle of page 6 and the bottom of page 7 of my build thread Thanks for the tip. The Ankle Biter is truley a work of art (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) i cant wait to see it finished. Any input as to structural strength w/o targa and the most simple fix? ( i usually wouldnt ask that question to an engineer but you have deffinatly made it abundantly clear that you are not just a "looked good on paper" type of guy). |
