I like your way, here we just wait until it is cold and scrap, but the sawzall works better probably. Guessing this is Sav's??

Doesn't the bar have to go over the hump? Nice work, looks great!

Hey Geoff, is that the tube goes through the center hump where the shift linkage will be?

steve, it is preferred that the bar does not go over the hump. it is much stronger and structurally sound this way, and its way cleaner. all we had to do was odify the shift linkage a bit.

using solid mounts negates the need for the shift stabilizer so you just need the one bar.

rolow -- we have some cage work in the front but its not worth looking at yet. once the funny car cage and the shock towers are all done next week ill put some pics up.

thanks so much for the compliments guys. its our first car, so we have had a pretty big learning curve.

ive been able to remove 12" pieces at a time freezing it w/ nitrous then scraping w/ a chisel. its fun. either that or put dry ice rocks on it. you can get some @ the local welding supply or ice store

Nice, Geoff....Full-Race should (if it hasn't already) start making bolt in roll bars...good way to diversify. Take some of Autopower's share of the pie. Email me with the specs and what your plans are for the car...
