A buddy and I put a cage together for the '73 I picked up earlier this year. Got it in just in time to take it to Red River, NM.. It's all tig welded, .120'' wall DOM.

Lol, a new cage. I sold that one. I didn't like how the rear halo turned out on it. Unfortunately, I ruptured a bicep tendon recently and have to take it easy for the next 4 to 6 months.

Beautiful!

I like how the B and C pillar legs have triangulated supports to the floor bars.

Another nice looking cage bigjhoov. I think I like it better than the first one. I'd suggest some tube gussets at the top of the B-pillars.

Thanks Dusty. I have four in there horizontally, fore and aft of the b spreader. I had a couple tacked in vertically but didn't care for them.
