I’m excited to see this finished. How fast are you getting it certified for?

It will be a 8.50 cert. I thought about the 7.50 but really wanted the swing out door bars and those are not available on anything faster than 8.50. My wife still likes to ride with me at times when running errands and that will make it easier for her to get in & out.

I was also wanting a cage that was tucked in and not very obvious to the passer by. The 7.50 is pretty obvious with the FC cage around the driver. and some of the other bars that come with it.

I like it. Gonna look well integrated with the car.

Pillar airbags get removed?

Please get pics of how it all ties in around the headliner.

The pillar airbags are still there for now. I will pull them out once I get it back. I had planned on doing it before taking it but ran out of time unfortunately.

I will keep sharing every pic I get! After I get it home I will share more pics, just let me know if there is something you want to see in better detail.

This is an awesome statement! 8.50 cert & run it on errands

Thank you sir! The S/C pics, made my stomach turn a bit.. But to your point, it's being pushed to its limits. I really thought hard about the 2650 Hot Rod S/C after seeing that..

Todays pic. He said that it all came back out this afternoon to be painted, will be reinstalled tomorrow, then final welds and touch up painting. Windshield should go back in on Wednesday and should be ready for pickup on Friday.

Going full blown race car at this point. Looking good, I've been on the fence about purchasing one of those RPM bolt in roll cages, but then i will completely lose the ability to take my family for joy rides.

Keep up the good work. Cage looks stout already.

Thank you!

I looked at the RPM bolt in ones quite a bit. They make a very nice product except for the bars around the dash on the 10pt cage. Those just dont look right to me IMO. I even went as far to create an account & added one with some options to my cart several times. They reached out at one point offering a discount code for me to use. I talked with a few people and they all recommended a welded in version if I was serious about it. And yes, either way the almost useless backseat becomes unusable it looks like. Unless the person likes yoga or can move around like a snake.. lol
