Looks good. Are you going to weld some flanges to make the rear cage unbolt or just leave it welded solid? Chad :mrgreen:

The whole back of the frame being tweaked was part of the reason I was doing this it bothered me

Are there any circle tracks around you?
If so there should be a local race car shop around, those guys usually have them.
