Doesn't look like much, but this "Homebuilt" job is equivalent to some $4000 machines out there. Will bend up to 1 1/2-2" tubing. Here is the site... search for "Roller" and you'll find all the files zipped together.

Ernie Leimkuhler 's Metalworking Links

He built it for $500

I made a manual bender with homemade dies to bend the arch shaped roll bar on this 928. I still have some of the parts for the bender.

Is this the same car?
