THINGS THAT GO VROOM

WAGON ROLLCAGE, part 2

July 3, 2009 by Troy 2 Comments

We got back to work and went a little hog-wild on the modifications…

Just kidding. Today we cut out the inner cowl and seat braces with the plasma cutter. We got the forward loop plates in, bent and installed the main down bars, and got the header tube in. The front wheelwell enlargement mods done by the previous owner can be seen in these photos. A triangular patch was cut out and welded back in further aft.   Next: diagonals, door bars, and front/rear suspension pick-up points.
