Arntz Type I Safety Cage Photos
"In looking at the pictures of your car, it is most likely an Arntz Type I (1974-1977) or Type II (1977-1979). The main difference between these is the Type II had a "safety cage" around the passenger compartment. Type III (1979-80) had a water drip rail and weather stripping around the hood opening".
Read this about the Arntz Type II safety cage. Am looking at the incomplete Arntz Cobra kit that is listed here on Club Cobra by Mbuc4309,
and learned that it is a type 1 and doesn't have the steel reinforcement safety cage that came on the type II. I understand the safety cage was added to later models to help with the body cracking that happened to earlier Arntz completed builds.
What I need is photos of the sandwiched safety cage so I can determine the cost to update the type I body by adding the reinforcement.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jim
