General regulations require it be welded. Whoever replied to your email must have only looked in the "Stock" section of the rule. I got caught on it is how I know. I got mine from Summit and don't think it moved the wheel at all.

If that is the actual case and was called on it I would just go with the swing-out bar myself...makes all the difference in the world getting in and out of many of these cars. Those high side bolsters on the aluminum seats compound the problem.

Thank you. And which one did you use?

I am a long way from the car, but knowing me it was the cheapest!

Todd the car is a piece of art. Attention to detail is breath taking.

Thanks Nick, Much appreciated. It's been a great ride so far. The real fun will be next year when we see how good we are at making this thing haul *****!

Been a rough week at work so far and I haven't gotten anything done. Autumn has been running parts around after school and I finally got in the shop for a couple hours today. Made the last ground strap, the starter cable, and it actually turned over for a second so that works. Started working on the brake pressure gauge so I can get the last flex hose made this week to button up the brake system.
