Default Who builds cages in GA?

I tried Robinson but they have a loooong waiting list
OPM did as well according to the person on the phone.

Anyone know of somewhere else? Its all mapped out to the mm and just needs to be bent up and welded.

Thanks

oh.. its for a secret ITC Car coming soon !

Sorry to hear Robinson is booked, I picked them when I was getting work done on the T2 car. Kirk is right down the road in Alabama and Schultz's Kirk cage looks great.

Try Kirk over in Birmingham.
Great work, on par with anything you get anywhere else. Mark has been building stuff for about 20 years. Does very good exhaust work too.
Ask for Julie and tell her Scott told you to call. She'll hook you up.

ITC car???
Hmmmmmm... Fresh meat .

Mark at Kirk just re-did the rear part of my cage for a very reasonable price. The work is top notch. My car it at OPM right now if you want to check out.

Mark at Kirk gets a big from me.

On my cars... One cage and 2 roll bars.
Mark also did Karl's car.

I've never heard of anyone having difficulty contacting them. Its a family business, and Julie is typically all over the phone.

Here is a picture of the work Mark did in my ITC Civic...

Typically a few weeks. Depends upon how busy they are.
You can pick a date in the winter though. They are dead then.

I'm almost positive that Grant built that cage in the Civic.
If Grant is still doing cage work, he does good stuff.

I'll build you a cage if you'll buy the pizza.
