Where are you considering in Ft. Worth? I just had Jason at Texas Racewerks do a custom chromoly 6 point in my car. The welding is jewelry quality and the price was excellent. I highly recommend him.

Talk to Robert Fulmer at LMR. I'm not sure if he is on the pay role or not but he builds some of the baddest **** you will ever see. He built Jeff Naisers Orange outlaw 10.5 car and his work is just incredible.

I talked to LMR one time and the price I got was as if they were using 24k gold as a filler metal for the welds.

Lyndon Geer of Geer Racing built the 25.5 cage in my T/A, he's in south FT. Worth. Wolfe Racecraft can also do it and James B. Chasis Service should be able to do it also. A cage is the one thing you don't want to go cheap on, it has to save your life.

Yeah, but. . . . . . . . You get what you pay for. The cage in the pics costed someone a good bit of money. If you go cheap you get cheap. I second the work on Naisers car. That car is a work of art.

If that is all he paid then why are you asking for a better deal? I would be contacting his chassis guy and have him do it if you like his workmanship.

Give Coach a call. He is local to you and does great work. My brother in law had him do a 98 Mustang and the work was top notch.

I don't have his contact info but here is his myspace page:

Your example is nice but here is some of our work. Notice the spider webs over the n2o bottles and in the corners of the cage. This isn't included normally but is is an example of the craftmanship and detail.

Looks like $2700.00 installed for a custom 10point complete with removal and install of the inter. Works for me

Guys I have been doing weld inspection for almost 8 years and a CWI (Cert Welding Inspector) so I know what quality I am looking for.

All of the above looks really good btw
