This is my first car to completely build the cage one. I've always been one to do things my self and try not to have to rely on anyone to do things for me. Since I needed a new car, why not build it myself. Bought a JD2 32 tubing bender. This has taken me 3 weeks so far, working on it a few days out of the week. I haven't taken any measurements off any cars, just kinda wingin and see how it goes. Yes there are things that I do not like that will be different in the next car I build. Everyone has their own opinions and I'm sure I'll get some negative comments on it. So far I'm pretty happy with it. Yes it does look tall, but I'm pretty tall myself and there's only an 1.5" of space between my helmet and the top bar. I'm still far from done and still got all the time consuming small bracing to do.
