Pad your roll bar (even Jason's on board with this now), and consider additional rear brake lighting.

Beautiful. Have you decided whether you will pad your roll bar or leave it bare?

Thanks Patrick,

I am working on a unobtrusive, minimalist pad rig, it’s just not done yet. For me the 1.5” hoop is an essential part of the look of the car. So I am trying not to stray too far. The goal being sufficient protection, but almost invisible, and removable. I will post pics when its finished.

Jason,
Noticing the FIA style roll bar support...
Is this new? If so, let's see some photos of the details!

Looks like it is coming along just fine, hopefully better than ever.

Hey Jim,

Yes Its new, It bolts the the passenger footwell frame rail by the bell-housing. It has a slight kink near the sholder area to give me a little more clearance. I Like it alot. Ill shoot a couple of pics of the bar today when I get to the shop.
