I am thinking about adding reinforcing tubing to my front trunk/shock tower area and would like to see what you have done to your cars.
Where do the tubes need to be located? I would like to keep the stock gas tank but if I have to notch it here or there it isn't the end of the world. Also the radiator shouldn't really be a huge concern, I can mount it anywhere. I am thinking something like this but in the front, not full tube chassis but more tube, less sheet metal.  Here is how it looks now.  Thanks for the help! |
