Can I suggest starting the A-pillar bar farther forward? Having it that far back makes it kind of in the way getting in and out of the car. I just hate banging into my car with my feet!

Just my $.02

Hi Jason,

Any suggestion is welcome. I am building a cage similar to what Jim Smith made. (Cotsweld race cars) http://cotsweld.co.uk/album/cotsweld...age/index.html

Time to start on the fire wall, not my favorite job but it has to be done.

The fire wall will sit 6cm higher as original, so I cut 6cm of the top.


Because of the innerwings I have to make it wider as well


We're getting there.
