I'm just saying in general, I have had a few places over the years take the car in (along with a deposit) and promptly park it in the corner for a couple months before touching it.

You're 200% right. Engine shops do the same damn thing.

Few 'done' pics, took me a week because I put a BigStuff3 in the car when I got it back and that took most of the time. Came out looking good and I am extremely happy with the cage, NRC did a real nice job on it.

It was cheaper than I thought it would be, best to call Bob and ask him since the cost varies between hardtop/t-top and if you want it painted, window net etc. I never asked for the basic price, just had him do it the way he wanted and paid the bill..

They are the Racecraft brackets that bolt to the stock studs in the floor.

Kevin,

What steering wheels adaptor (Grant ??) kit do you use to put the regular steering wheels in the car.

I tried looking on their site and they only list the 'Air Bag' add ons?

Other Kev

Its grant part number 3196, fits most GM cars. You have to trim the plastic a bit on the column (1/8" or so) or trim the metal 'bell' on the horn kit because it rub a little but that takes about five minutes.

The old one was black and this one is blue, so it will never be the same
