Thanks for the info guys.
My car is a 87 asc/mclaren #486(I know the #s don't mean sh-- it sounds special when you include the #)
Iam defiantly gonna invest in one now that I know its possible.
Iam gonna check out those sites.
I had a feeling it had to be modified because of the 20 deg angel on the windshield, But do you actually lose seat space when you put it in?do the seats have to come forward?
Iam also going to be welding it to the frame instead of bolts so I get extra support.
"A friend of mine got T-boned on his side by a big Dodge Ram truck in
his 89 convertible, and between the roll bar and sub frame
connectors, it stopped that car from flexing just enough to save his
life. The grill of the truck ended up hitting the roll bar and
instead of crushing through the car, it pushed the car instead.
Don't get me wrong, the car was totaled, but at least he walked
away!"
That's exactly why I want to put a little protection in the car.
Ill spend the 800 bucks for that!!!
a little story......
I was racing a rice burner & his beer can for an exhaust the other night on the hwy. we were doing about 120mph +.I was totally gaining on him when all of a sudden I hit some kind of ditch on the hwy. It made the car go airborne to come down for a hard landing. I got a little nervous so I backed off(I haven't done the suspension yet its still stock).So I let the lawn mower go, only to see him flashing his hazards thinking he got the victory. That made me mad.
I said to myself "if I would of lost control of the car I would of flipped it and I would be dead!
I need some protection!!!!!
anyway,
I thought you guys might of had a laugh with that, My friends are still ripping on me for that one.
thanx for the info again guys ill post pics as soon as I get it done.
peace,
