I did Doc@Efialchemy's cage a few years ago. 6pt 4130 Chromoly Wolfe cage. I've done dozens of other cages and have owned 2 F-Bodies. Let me know if I can help!

Dan Neumann did my cage; will bend it exactly how you want for very reasonable rates.

We also can build your cage. We have a very talented fab guy on hand who has extensive knowledge on proper cage building and welding techniques.

Build it once, build it right

Thanks Erik. But thats a little bit too far of a drive. Looking for something closer. Just pulled the carpet and found some rust holes in the floor pan on both sides. Gotta figure out how I want to address that. Any suggestions.

No problem - I figured it was a hell of a trip!

Strip the rust down, fill where necessary, and hit with some rust encapsulator from Eastwood. Throw carpet back down and forget about it.

Ill check into speed fab. Your car looks good and clean.

Erik the rust is right where the plate would go for the door bars. Its a few places in that area. You think a few small patches would be sufficient enough. The biggest spot is probably 4''x 4". My other option is to cut out the front section and sheetmetal it. Just want it to be safe.
