Well, not really. It wouldn't be shipped as shown - it would be taken apart silly. Besides, shipping would be the same if you bought an Autopower or Kirk cage. They both still ship the cage.

My friend bought a Kirk cage - shipping was around $60 to CT. Considering the amount you save in comparison to having a custom cage built that is pretty darn small...

My bad - it is the seller that I should be picking on. "is a take apart with 8 pieces" but they are shipping it with a "Box will be about 4 ft tall by 5 feet long and 1 ft. thick". I don't get it. If it were welded together they couldn't have taken it out of the car nor could anyone ever put it in the car. Why don't they just take it a part. Am I missing something else here?

Good deal if price stays low, but I doubt it's DOM tubing.

Also, a friend I forwarded the link to pointed out the the tube near the front (headliner area?) looks fouled up in some way. Any ideas?

I saw that too. I think it's just missing a sleeve on the passenger side, so the front halo bar is not lined up. However, I wasn't aware that Autopower front halo bars are sleeved on both sides. My Kirk bolt-in came welded on one side and sleeved on the other.
