yeah that got painted aswell but tbh i wish it had stayed as it were but the painter bullied me into thinking it was a good idea lol, not the end of the world as i can alaways change it back.

 

[Mikey]

lol it was probs easier for the painted to say that... looking good though, keep us updated

 

[hughesclio]

a little update i got the rest of the cage fitted today along with the seats and harnesses
just got to cut the dashtop to go around the cage now and sort my rear door card blanks out then she should be done.
4 weeks solid its taken but i think its been worth it!!!

hope you like

there as rare as rocking horse s**te arnt they? but stronger

something like that which is why i parted with more money than i wanted to for it, im really pleased with cage and how it has turned out
you cannot skimp when safety is involved as there id no second chances

 

[Conlon]

does look good!

 

[RichCup]

Looks awesome!! Like the cutoff switch location/bracket, I'll be stealing that idea
