70 dart 470 ci drag car build.
Did you know..... Building a roll cage is not easy ?
I'm learning a lot in this process, spent half of the day taking the pups to the vet.. they're now 20 pounds from 6 pounds when we got them. After that I was talking to my local welding company about the probably failing millermatic 35, I talked to this guy 3 hours in 2 visits lol, went down the street to the steel yard and had more 6 by 6 plates cut .
I mocked up my bar that goes to the main hoop to the floor under the dash. Then built another outrigger frame off of the front frame rail.
I got it where I think it should be and welded it in.
It was a long day. The harbor freight pipe notcher works excellent, I'd say for Chinese it was good and also I had to purchase a 1/2 inch drive drill .
I'm hoping for a lot more progress tomorrow with a 12 hour day.
