Are you moving the drivers side helmet bar back and using the offset passenger bar halo tie in?

Eh, I got it fitted and tacked in already and I don't think it's going to be that bad to get in/out of so I'll prob leave it.

More progress. got the dash bar in, and an bunch of the pipes that go behind the seat. It's getting closer to done.

Dave by the time your done its going to weigh as much as my truck...looks good

[DaveH]

The CM is pretty light actually, I took out the oem support bars in the doors, the oem steering column, etc so I don't expect the car to be much heavier than last year. I guess we'll see.

Main part of funny car hoop is fitted.

[DaveH]

All the 25.5 stuff is complete and tacked in. Just a couple brackets left to add to the steering column! w00t!

[63vette]

You may want to add one more bar to stabilize the steering column unless its a very solid mount on the firewall, and dont forget to add a tab for the gopro mount.

Here is how I did mine:

Finished the column up this morning!

Man, it's a great feeling having this done. Huge thanks to Bill O. for letting me use some of his tools, and to Fallguy for letting me use his chopsaw and for holding pieces in place while I welded. Thx to Jim for looking at my silly pics and giving ideas.

Looks great! Imagine doing a whole cage in 2 days. I dont know how those guys do it.

Awesome progress!

When does it get all the final welding?

[DaveH]

The tech inspector is going to come and look at it this week to make sure I did everything to spec, and then hopefully I can get it welded up asap.
