Got my troubled tube tacked in place and now onto the side bars. Got a call into ISP today to order the head restraint. Waiting for a call back about a question I have. Also, the Brown Santa brought my first piece of safety gear! Some swanky Piloti driving boots. The quality of the leather is amazing.

OK, I SWEAR I will not shoot a pic of every tube! Bute the cage is getting there.

I lied, I AM taking shots of every tube only because I work so Dodge slow! Here is the tube I call a "tie bar" that keeps my knuckles from finding earth. Bottom is coped, upper end needs to be trimmed so thing settle down a couple inches.

T, now is a good time to put some roll bar padding above the helmet to ensure you have a enough clearance and them check for 120 degrees of forward vision.  I would tack in those bars where you think they should be, put in a seat height base and back, then put on the helmet, climb in look around and climb out.  Suggest doing this a lot from this point on.

Thanks, yes, I am doing that. Next step will be to add my backrest and lower tubes so I can pinpoint the seating. . I also have a call into ISP and am going to use their padding system. Their website has a very detailed form on the measurements they need to build a custom system.
