JamesB does work on F-bodys. Your cheapest route would probably be to get your cage, etc.. from Wolfe and have James weld it in. Wolfe has some really good deals at x-mas...20% off parts.

If I were going to buy a Wolfe cage I'd have Wolfe install it. If you are taking the car to jamesB have him build you a cage.
