Roll Cage recommendations for a Mk2 Escort
Discussion
Morning all,
Funds and time are finally looking like making my Mk2 Escort build a reality during 2011. I've got electric, and lights being wired into the garage as my Xmas present to myself, and I've started to fabricate a trolley to move the bodyshell around on.
During the winter/spring (by Easter would be nice) I will be cracking on with the shell prep, and installing the 4 link boxes and rear turrets ..... then its cage time!
I'll be installing the cage myself, and adding bits where I thing that there is some opportunity for additional gussets and seat belt tubes, but I'm looking for recommendations on the best weld in roll cage that is available on the market. Top of my list at the moment is the Custom Cages mulitpoint offering. I've used their cages before in the past on other peoples cars, and the quality is excellent. As my Escort is a "lifetime ownership car", however, I want to do the job once, and am interested to understand if there are any other manufacturers that I should be looking at.
Opinions from first hand experiences would be appreciated.
