Roll Bars

RacingRob · 05-02-2008, 10:27:38 AM

While I have the interior gutted, I though this would be a good time to install a roll bar.
This will be a 99% street car with a couple open track (road course) days.
I want to buy a bolt-in 4 or 6 point cage that I can install, and then take to get welded in.
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to where I should buy it and any other thoughts about this modification?
Thanks for any thoughts or opinions, good or bad.

I'm using the DSE unit, just got it a couple of weeks ago and haven't installed yet. I did see it in thier test car when I picked mine up at DSE, very unobtrusive unit with a nice out of the way fit. It also has a removable cross bar with stainless hardware. This is not a bolt in unit, you will have to remove the seats, carpet, and rear package tray to install along with anything covering the trunk floor and then weld it in place, it comes in 4 pieces already radiused and fitted with excellent instructions. The price was about $650 but it's a hellavu nice piece. I'm installing it on the new project because I intend to do a lot of track days and I also wanted the removeable cross bar for my shoulder harness on track day but be able to remove it if I wanted to take passengers with me on a cruise night.

I assume DSE is Detroit Speed.
I only saw a cage listed for the '67 to '69 Camaros.
My whole interior is out so now would be the time to do something like this.
Thanks for the info though.

Yes, Detroit Speed and Engineering. They don't have it listed on the website but it is available, call and ask for Mark.

I'll see what the govt sends me as far as my handout.
A new cage would certainly help the economy!
Thanks,
