The Scaffolds in!


The offending item before the mods smile Don't Look Tom!



Let the Cutting begin.




And the bending begins!!!!


More cutting


The finished mods now make the opening of the door using the emergency door levers totally unrestricted


Note how the tubes now hug the rear bulkhead


With the mods you now get full use of the upper storage box smile


Massive thank you to Neil for the use of his workshop and Time. We must have had the roll bar in and out of the car some 15 times!

The finished dash
Engine Start button recessed.




And the Final touch
Vintage sticker from Le mans 1996


Roll on Le mans, NOT LONG NOW!

Note on the roll bar:
After trying to fit the original roll bar in my car it did not fit!
Several emails to Steve at Autoform confirmed that due to different roof linings I had an Early roll bar and confirmed it would not fit my car! The roll bar still touches the roof lining but its not now trying to force its way through the roof!
You can now recline the seat back fully too smile Not a 5 min job but well worth it thumbup
