Have a look for other models with a similar cab shape that already have cages, easier to start with one already made and change slightly to suit than make from scratch.

What model are you trying to fit a cage to?

A 2002 Hot Wheels car. Any ideas on cars that may already have cages that could be modified to fit in a 2002? Sadly I am stuck at home sins the GF has our car at work, other wise I would just drive to target right now and check.

Hey has anyone put a roll cage/bar in a hot wheels? I just tried today with 20 gauge copper wire (silver color) an I'm not happy how it turned out. I feel like it would be easier to to get some sort of thin plastic rod and heat/bend/weld it together...
Any links to pictures or build threads?

Started my own little collection. A friend of mine found me the blue m3

[DTM190]

Bench grinder, then a metal ladies nail file and then 2 grades of sand paper.

There is enough meat in the E30 casting to mark out the wheel arches and file them down to create a non M3, the boot lid will most likely be the trickiest bit.

Next mission is to convert an E30 M3 to a non M, skinny body conversion

How difficult was it to convert the Celica? I'm assuming you just filed down the flares?

While at the local Farmers Market I stopped at a booth selling some Hot Wheels and found a 850i from the 2000 collection. The gentlemen at the both said he had dozen's of boxes of Hot Wheels and to check back each week as he knows he has more BMW's. AWESOME!!!! :)
