OK, here goes.
I bought this car last year in Connecticut, it was non running, original somewhat documented with 63K miles. Last time the car was registered was in 1990. The reason it stopped running was because of a fuel leak at a shop and the car got evicted from the premises right away and that was it. Attached image(s) |

Well today I made the brackets to mount the roll-bar and keep it removable. I know it's not the best method to install it, but I opted for a mounting solution that would not interfere with the longitudinal's outer appearance in any way. So I made these up that will be welded inside the longs when they will be open for surgery. Why 2 pieces on each side? It's because where the roll-bar mounts, there is a bracket for the heat tube right in the middle and it will stay there.
For more info on the fabricating of these you can see this other thread. It took me quite some time; it was my first real fabricating experience, and my second time welding so the welds are not so pretty. Attached image(s) |
