I know the photos are great but u can see the cage its made out of 1 5/8 cds seamless tubing

Not sure, I'm aiming to get this thing into the 10s....but its mainly for safety when using on the road too....these old cars aren't exactly the safest to be in!

I'd want 2" CDS, removable door bars or swing out bars that latch into place with the doors. The rear cross brace needs to be behind the seats too so I can keep the bench in there. Its been designed and a way off as the cars not roadworthy yet, I'm just asking questions atm

Can I ask why you feel the need to use 2inch cds when the msa states 1 5/8s for a 8sec car

 

[super noob]

The size gives a better scale to the size of the car, its an aesthetic choice

OK I gt want you mean personally I'd go for 1 5/8 its look fine in a maverick iv had and a Plymouth fury

On performance gear I'd prefer to see back purged joints personally

I'm the same. Doesn't matter to me what the part has got to do but if it's going into service and the weld is right through Id feed on the inside every time. I don't like coking and no matter what people say it DOSE reduce weld life.

I'd go so far as to say I'd be sending it back with none purged welds

Its probably a tiny bit smaller than a 70s fury
