Re:CRX Project Pictures First Stage
Stage 1 continues - The Cage Begins
This is the makings of the main hoop sitting outside the car
These next two are the side rails being mocked up, we didn't get much done tonite after a full day at work. These will be split to allow the main hoop to pass through, somewhere near the bend by the door
This shows the slight bend and the foot of the sidebars, we opted to do this so it would be easier to center on a plate, yet we could get the upper portion of the bar as close to the door as possible.
Shot of both sidebars just sitting mocked in place, you can see the main hoops oversized base plate, the main hoop leans back to meet the bend above it, then heads straight up to match the doorline
Rear view of one side bar.
Rear view both sides in place
Next session at the shop we should get the bars coped out and start welding some stuff together. I'll post more as soon as I have some.
