Nick's new Snap-On "crudbuster" tool working it's magic taking off all the undercoating spray/rust/debris.




Jay's precise measurement and cuts to allow the rollbar through the floorboard and bed of truck.

This is a good friend of Jay that works here. He is pushing over 500rwhp through the stock bottom end .. eep

We already have a 02 z06 lined up for the next project for a 5-point bar with drivers swingout. We will be updating with pictures on that project probably by Weds. Then we have another 88 fox-body that we are going to do a full 12-point cage including 2 kicker bars and the 'traditional' 10-point style with parachute mount, window net and harness belt.

We do performance work on all 4.6, 5.0, and 5.4 mustang motors. We just don't advertise that on these forums for obvious reasons

Some more updates. Main hoop is tacked in place and so are the rear bars.
