    And your tires are bald!

    From way back here that's looking like a very sweet roll cage install.

    Good point. I might need the removeable steering wheel and maybe column too. Even then I might hurt myself getting in.

    JMatt, I'm guessing having to step over that bar on entry and especially on exit is going to be a deal killer for your wife... "So how am I going to do this in a skirt and worse, a gown?". Britney's pics probably didn't help your case.

    Isn't there any way around those diagonal bars? Is it because we don't have a frame? I remember someone putting a full frame under a Magnum a year or two ago. I think it was primarily for the roll cage.

    The bar that runs down to the driver's left foot is allowed to be be made as a "swing-out" bar. Which just means you can unbolt and remove that bar.

    (and yes - my wife has already seen this thread) :bigwink:

    WELL! That should take care of any concerns. Get with it Matt.

    Still curious. Anyone remember that guy putting a full frame under a Magnum? I think it was on lxforums.

    Yes - that project is still ongoing apparently. It seems like it will be a 10 year project.
