ive been trying to decide between the bar behind the dash or not, I just noticed that yours doesnt go back that far it sits in front of the dash from the looks. I like it alot. Great job cant wait to see more pics

enough... Miro is a busy guy -I have been talking with him about doing this for like 18 months -and he just got to it. I think I bought the material last Nov. -He really does not do much work for other people -but I'm sure if you throw enough money at him he might make time.

here it is painted:

That cage is all sorts of nasty, I'm diggin' it.

When you get the dash in, please snap a couple pics. This is pretty well what I want mine like.
