OK, just checking, weird seeing no lock washers, or nylocks or other style of lock nuts on suspension parts,

to be in the garage .... in the 50's! Well, this roll bar is taking longer than I thought to get the angle of the dangle to match on two sides and level with the car. So here is the progress so far, I gotter pretty close for welding, hopefully work on the trunk bars tomorrow and finish this roll bar once and for all!

Oh, I didn't feel like thinking the other day so I sanded the EDP off the quarter, figure once you get started might as well finish it ... its gotta be done sometime

Anyhow .... here's some pictures of many hours of compound angle sanding?
















Supposed to be snowing be the am ... fire up the heater and get this done!

Thanks for looking ...

Nice progress! having the roof off already helps a lot to. You didn't have to cut holes in the floor to drop the cage so that's nice. Good planning

As usual Chief, your work looks stellar.

Diggin' the metal work!

Glad your catching a brake with the weather.

That was the other day, it snowed last night and it never got above 28, luckily I put the rigid insulation in for a ceiling and that makes a difference!




Well, get the heater out and finish the trunk bars, got the plates fitting the floor nice and tight, and the bars are there .... may sand the pass side just a hair more.

Went ahead and tacked the main hoop in place for reference on the other bars .... work on it some more tomorrow, 50's

I hate to sound like a broken record, but all I can say everytime I see the progress is "wow".

Thanks ....

Figured since it was gonna be 72 degrees out I'd roll the car outside, get the garage paint booth going and get the quarter and the wheel houses in epoxy. I did finish the drivers side trunk plate, that is what necessitated taking off that side of the car.

I'll work on the plates tomorrow and should get the roll bar welded ... we'll see.

Some pixs ...









Supposed the snow again Wednesday so I'll have to get busy and finish the roll bar and maybe primer ...

Thanks for looking ....
