"Prefabbed" kits aren't really ready to install. Lots of tweaking, cutting, welding, fabbing still have to go into them.

Good Luck!
Thanks Jester. So in your opinion, this is something I should probably pay to get installed then? I'm a decent welder, but my Dad can weld anything. He built a replica Cobra and welded up the entire chassis...and used to fabricate dune buggy chassis' as well. I don't know if he has the time to dedicate into the task of putting a cage in. I guess, I'll just pay to get it done. Is this something I have to have an NHRA official ok? Or can that be done at my local track? Sorry for all the questions...this is uncharted waters for me.
