Roll Cages for classic saloon cars
|
|
Bolt-in cage for 1963 Plymouth Barracuda.
|
|
| Cage to full FIA specifications which could be welded in with removable door bars if required. |
|
| Floor mountings to FIA requirements for size and thickness are welded in. This allows load from cage to be spread across floor panels. |
|
| This installation is in a 1966 Ford Mustang for FIA Appendix K racing. The tubes have been fitted as close to the bodywork as possible but still allowing all interior trim to be fitted. |
|
| These pictures were taken during construction prior to finish welding so most joints are only tacked. |
|
| Reinforced mounting points have been constructed to tie the roll bars into the main structure of the body. |
|
| Shown is a roll cage installation in an Austin A35. Main hoop, diagonal and rear braces. |
|
| View from rear shows braces passing through the parcel shelf to mounting points on the boot floor. |
|
| Here strengthening panels have been added to the boot floor for the rear braces and complete front mounts have been added to the rear seat riser to provide a secure attachment for the main tube. |
|
| This installation in a 1964 Ford Falcon is a classic weld-in six point cage with bolt-in door bars. |
