Bax,
Thats one of the nicest well drawn out plan I have ever seen. Theres a ton of head scratching there. Got any hair left? Well done sir. Should you plan on having these stainless steel dashes made please shoot me a price.

Like I said, the SS dash is in a cad file and the company that made it is willing to do it again. Mine was made of of 14 gauge. It was super strong when all bent up. We could of gone thinner but the welding would of been harder. The ends are welded on. They did a super job on it the finished weld seams look like it was bent and not welded. I paid $450 for the SS part. so its not cheap but it is a necessary part to the design. If I used mild steel and painted it I am sure it would of been less.

im doing away with the tubing A-pillar as well... below the dash. I mocked up a design using plate steel but now after reading this I may decide to transfer the down force through the side wall like bax and do away with the foot plates inside on the floor. I been designing my cage for 3 years now%) I also mocked up the upper tubes out of SS and it about 1/2" away fomr my SS viewfinder frame for a almost hidden look.

Thanks for more inspiration BAX! Back to the drawing board!
