Default Formula gets certification for 8.50 this weekend

Yep, things are starting to move along nicely again on the 94 Formula project that started October 08. I bites that the price of certification just doubled in the last month though.

That looks awesome! I am looking to do the exact same thing really soon in my 93. I just got my cage the other day. I think they cut the main hoop a little short. Could you measure the height, total length of your main hoop, and the top square? Mine is supposed to be for a convertible. I'm thinking it should work, but it is looking like it is going to take some work.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

Gator, do you go to Sunshine or Bradenton?

Thanks, I bought it for $150. I knew I would have / want to redo some of the bars, but for the price it was hard to pass up. I was going to buy a Wolfe towards Christmas when they normally run their 20% off sale. For some odd reason this year their cages were only 8% off so I decided to hold off. I hope this one fits.
