Default Any interest in a full roll cage?

I think we are going to junk our 350Z that we wrecked last year and I was wondering if anyone would like to buy a perfectly good roll cage? Its a full SCCA legal cage with a petty bar that was installed by a guy in Ohio who's business is only building roll cages. We used him on 3 cars over the years. I think you can cut the roof off the car and cut around the cage and salvage it.

Its located in Arlington, Virginia. Best way to contact me is

I've seen the cage in person and it is a stout, well built unit.

Mark McMahon in Canton, Ohio built the cage and his web site is
www.rollcageguy.com If you look at his pictures and find the blue 350Z our cage is the same but with a Petty bar on the passenger side. We also have double door bars. I was thinking if we cut the roof off the car it should be somewhat easy to get out. The two bars to the firewall would have to be cut off and replaced. Our present car is the 3rd cage that Mark has done for us.

Most of the competition stuff was transfered over to the new car so there isnt much left other than stock stuff. I don't think we can ship this cage so it would have to go to someone local. When we had this cage built the roof wasnt on the car and the roof isn't really that hard to install if you know what you are doing.

Great cage design. But, I'm not sure how well it will transfer.

If you give Mark the rules for cages he can build anything you want. Mark is a real craftman and a good racer in his own right.

A couple of co-workers got their roll bars done by this guy and recommend him. If/when I do get a rollbar I'll be going to him.

Bump for racerbob

Bob - do you guys still have this cage? Do you think it would ship/reinstall well? I'm ready to upgrade, especially after my wall touch at Laguna Seca at the end of last year . Price?
