Connisuer311 Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Sweet lookin project man. I'm with some of the guys here on this opinion: digging that OG paint!!!! Lol. Would love to see it polished up real good. That cage is sweet. Never seen one go around the dash, but it looks awesome. I can see the cage connecting in my imagination already, back seat passengers are holding on it lol. Keeping the back seat? Awesome build man. Subbed. 1 Quote Link to comment

SR20DETdatsun510 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 In Cali, I think it is illegal to have rear passengers in a car with a cage unless they are wearing helmets. Gives me a reason to never have passengers in my back seat anyways. Hehe Are you going to have a cross bar low tying the diagonal door tubes together? Is this designed with any regulations in mind? I had the center diagonal bar (right behind the front seats removable do that I can get the rear seat in and out easier. Might want to think about that one ;) Heres a pic: Quote Link to comment
BayArea510 Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Its a Track car right? Quote Link to comment
BayArea510 Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 John, I would assume if it is a track car it would have to go by design rules to meet competition safety requirements. Quote Link to comment
