                you should take some non-fisheye lens photos.

                That said, I am very jealous. I need a cage like that, and I need to strip out my interior more. How did you remove all the tar from the interior? dry ice? Also, is that cage FIA compliant?

                (I need a to copy off someone's cage...)

                      I wish I had a better camera, I'm using my gopro, all wide angle. The tar came out really easy, plastic puddy knife and a heat gun. Most cars I've done have been such a mess to strip compared to this one. I built the cage only to meet my needs, not any sactioning body. Not a FIA cage.

                        Maybee $400 in materials? Something like that. Two sticks of 1.75x.095 DOM, and two sticks of 1.5x.095 DOM. A little one inch tube and some sheet metal.
