At least he has his fire extinguisher zip tied to the tubing...couple few cuts from his pocket knife and that baby is ready to go. These fellas are about safety.

You would be safer in the car with stock seats/belts and NO cage compared to that crap.

I bet the cage builder must have been incredible with an "Erector Set" as a kid.

I don't know what you lot are moaning about. It looks like it's going to add a significant amount of rigidity to to the chassis. Love the cross brazing. Bet it doesn't weigh much either! Lol

(Oh and it's a Ford guy so what do you expect?)lol

Thanks, I needed a good laugh today.
It's funny until you think someone trusted their life to that.

Forgot to mention they had the money for a helmet paint job. good grief
