Hey i have been gone for a while. I started work at a local shop building roll cages. Well i know have a v8rx7 and a normal 12a. Well we satrted putting a cage in my 85 just a four point and i was wondering if nayone would be insterested in a roll cage it is looking like we could do them for less than anyother place and they are quality built by next week i should have pics. Please email me if you might be interested,'

Great Idea, but a properly done cage should be welded in. Bolt-in Cages are, IMO, just for looks.

 

You can always weld where you'd bolt =)

 

mine will be a weld in and probally a six point but alot of websites are selling 4 point bolt in cages and thought i would see if any first gen guys would want one. i can sell them fro under 300.

hmm, I am interested.

 

yeah if you can make it cheaper than autopower im all for it

 

Under $300?? Sounds like a fair price.

 

would it have a harness and cross bar?

Weld it does sound good to me.

 

Im thinking about making one myself actually. A girl I know has a brother who is into the metal working junk and has a tubing bender he said I could use so Im thinking about messing around making one of my own too .

this will have a cross bar now on how the cross bar is designed is a debate i want it to cross early so that it will not go into my storage bins. i will be posting pics of the process through out this week and should be finished by the weekend pending any major disaster.

Rotormotor try it but you might learn soon that you will bend a lot of pipe before you can get it perfect also make sure to buy the correct grade of pipe cause i recently saw a guy turn a car over that used sub par pipe and it just crushed in.

Also all cages will have tangs welded on for a 5 point harness. after mine is done we can knock these things out. as for the bolt in weld in issue yes welding is stronger but we all must deal with the means we have . trust me though if you bolt it in or weld it this can be a life saver. My boss is making me put one in the v8 car cause i scare him enough in the milkd street port i have.

Would it get in the way of interior stuff? like, would i have to have a stripped interior for it?

 

Well, $1.00 is less than $300. I'll buy one for $1.00.

 

cody nice ride but not today

iotis we are designing the cage where you will have to remove the cargo boxes and notch the frames to fit around the pipe. I will include the a pattern to cut them to fit. like i said it will take a bout a week to have the four point in min i will post pics as we go sso you have some idea. it should look real good when we are done it might be the only thing on the v8 car that looks good.

Pics would be nice, I might be interested if the price is right.

 

i will have pics by the weekend hopefully.
