The Roll Bar

Found it in junk yard, and with some fab work I got it to fit. This is it back from the chrome shop. I'm pleased.

Thanks all.
Well fab probably wasn't the right word, had to cut 1" out of the legs to fit inside, add new feet. (simple I thought)... legs were rusted so bad on the inside that we cut 3" to 6" off the legs to get to good metal. all good now. I chased the www for a roll bar like this that would fit no luck.

Ogden Chrome did the work, they are the only one's around here that could do large pieces. They let me see the process that the items went through to get finished, pretty neat.
