This rain (and SNOW) all weekend sucked since I didn't get to work on it, but the break was good too.

If all goes well it will be ready for this summer - might be mid-summer but that's my goal. At least before Fawl Crawl. It all depends on how well I can save $$ for the gears & lockers.

I know I know... I'll take some pics when we get the front legs on it. Hopefully we don't have too many issues while fitting it behind the dash.

It's been a while since I've updated this thread so here it is....

We got the main hoop bent last weekend. It's hard to tell in the pics, but it's straight at the bottom and has a small kick in it to angle the main hoop back.

Today we cut the dash for the cage to go behind it, bent the 2 tubes going to the front, and added 2 cross tubes - one just above the dash and the other behind the windshield wiper motor.

There are still some triangulation tubes to add to the front of the cage, but we'll probably get to work on the rear portion next so we can tie the coil-overs in and it will actually have a rear suspension.

Here are some pics :beer:
