Progress pics of my car (cage, battery)

[WhiteT]

Here is some progress pictures of the roll cage installation, dash rewire and battery relocation project I have been working on. Big thanks to my buddy Tom for helping out on the cage! I still have a little to do...the trunk needs to be painted and the interior needs to have the finishing touches done still. Thanks to Kennebellcobra for the sheet metal!!!!! I used every bit of it on the trunk firewall and the floor board patches where the bars go through to the frame:bigthumb

Here's the pics:

Looks good! What kind of paint did you use on your roll cage?

Thanks guys! I spent all day putting the engine together. My goal is to hit up tristate Saturday for some easy passes. I have a big Buick race the weekend of May 17.


Looks good! What kind of paint did you use on your roll cage?

It's just gloss rustoleum painted on with a brush. You can't see any brush marks. Turned out better than I thought it would.

Autozone. They are just normal struts for hoods or hatches.
