How do you choose the time for that unless you are suicidal? I´m in a process of building my Pantera, and I´m also adding a roll bar or roll cage, or whatever I should call it. I´m leaving out the front part because I love my head and my brains. I do think it is a real concern to think about when adding a roll cage into a street car.
i saw and was in enough accidents ( that those didn't ever happen never because of me not changed anything !) to know what i'm talking about. Through a little of humor i hinted on these people who overthink safety but buy and drive a muscle car, go from street to tracks on little events, having in reality no clue about driving a muscle car because they think ( somewhere in their effective precious brain- wan't denie that !) it's finaly not so far from a city car or that they are going to drive safely and everything's gonna be just fine.
Choosing a Pantera is a love story.
"Just" and only a love story.
Risky and time and money taking it is.
But everything in life is risky and when bad happens it just happens .
In over 30 years of muscle car love, i never saw or heard a lost of head or brain by front part of roll cage ( but here we don't do stockcar races).
By fallig in stairs, three times (lot more if you look for other body parts hurting) !
And talking about hurting, the last thing i want is to hurt your feelings, but, look, i'm old enough to say that : there's no place safe in life, never, but it's worth it.
with or without roll bars
good luck for your Pantera project
