Arrow Needing Cage and Chassis Work

I'm needing a Cage put in my car and I just wanted to get some opinions on who I should send it to. Any suggestions?

x2 for midwest chassis. Hands down the best fabricator I have seen yet. Their only downfall is there is only one of him. Damn that cloning invention. LOL

Thanks for all the replies. Sounds like MWC is highly recommended. Might just have to give them a call :-)

Go to your local track, and see who has done alot of cars in your area. One thing that I can tell you, is that if you ever need something changed, fixed, rewelded, etc. it's nice to have someone that's local to you that can help.

I also can make a case for sending a car a good distance too though.. as the craftsmanship from one shop that is a good 1000 miles from me, as well as the timly fashion that they get things done in, make sending my car to them, a real possibility.
