I have a friend in the metal fabrication industry, i have some knowledge and experience in metal fabrication but i just wondered if anyone could help me here.
How can i/what is the best way to mock up a cage and then get it made? as in how would i make a acurate template for my friend to follow?
And does the cage have to be assembled inside the car or can they be lifted in and welded down?
any help much appreciated thnx

Thats the problem there isnt anywhere, i live in the UK, the only places to get cages from over here are bolt in's
Probably just have to look harder. Try asking around at local races.
One word of advise, I'd rather have no cage at all than a poorly built cage.

These guys make nice pre-bent tube sets that you just have to fit and weld in.
