Do a search in the classified section for group buys, and check out the vendor list on the right side of the page as well.

I put a Wolfe 6pt in my convertible and it fit like a glove. It's in the shop getting a full cage added on as we speak.

Another firm vote for Wolfe. There are a few different rollbars out there, but the Wolfe is the best fitting. Period. I have Wolfe bars in both of my cars (coupe and covertible).

No swing outs here. Not a fan.

Yessir. The Driver's side is being re-done right now with a straight bar, though.

The car is getting a full cage to SFI spec 9.00 ET. The bar needs to be straight and made for a window net.

unless it is a convertible, swing outs are good on a SFI sportsman certification to 8.50.

I notice some of the verts have the rear bars (over the rear sets) in different locations or different spacing is that something you guys specify when ordering a wolfe race craft bar?
