Default 8 Point Roll bar installed

Just picked up the WS6 from Cliffs place, let me tell you he does great work. welds look very good. I would recommend his work to anyone on here.

Still got to paint the lower section of the roll bar and install the interior but looks like I just might make memorial day mayhem, It will most likely be my last time I take her down the track with the 6 speed. Hope to see you there. Ill get some pics up later.

Two more things left until I am done with this build.
Race seats
Race harness'

Feels good to almost be done.

Actually looks pretty good. Did Cliff have to modify it any to make it work? Besides out of the ordinary stuff. IT actually looks like it sits where it is suppose to be.

He had to bend the forward strut to get it to go around the door panel.
