You and MarsFab are doing great work. Those tail light housings are smooooth.
What ga sheet are you guys using to skin the tube fenders? Did you flange the brace that penetrates the firewall?

Thanks for the answer on the sheetmetal.
It may have changed by now, but for a while it looked like you were designing the cage to be removable for paint. That's why I was asking if this tube was flanged. I figured it connected to the a-pillars, wanted to see what you built for that.

Ahh gotcha! Yea up until those two bars went in, the cage was completely removable. We actually had to lift it up a few feet to weld the bottom side of everything. After we sat it back down we welded those bars in. Snappy isn't too worried about it being able to come out but if it ever needs to you'll just have to cut that bar on either side to do it.

This is a b class rig. Thanks for all the replies. Look for heavy updates in the next few weeks, we went racing this past weekend. It is getting paint next week then the mad dash to wire and plumb.
