Looks puny to my mind.
I know he doesn't plan to crash his buggy and that it is not required by any state to have one in your vehicle,... its just me I guess.

The car is currently at my friends shop in Redlands, CA. You will are welcome to cruise on over and check it out in its current condition. Allen S. [a member here on the forum ] is on vacation from Surrey B.C. and he came by last week to check it out. It was fun meeting him.

I have seen the tubing he is making the roll cage from and it looks like the electrical conduit we used to pull wire through at work to me.

I seriously doubt that I will be putting down the horsepower that "Dandy Dick Landy" did, but I am sandwiching the body floor between 2 pieces of 1/8" plate held together with grade 8- 3/8" bolts and nyloc nuts. I've done this in about every place that is possible.

Never too young to learn
My 12 year old grandson Chase came over to help me today. He loves physics and what better way to learn it than bending tube? He catches on fast. We are bending the left and right rear pieces. This is the best way to work on something.

UAW Local #599, Flint, Michigan
I spent 31 years at GM protected by the Union Local #599. Been retired 19 years and still pay bills. Retired out of skilled trades, Instrument Repair.
I am certainly glad I lived and worked in a state that supported Union labor. Salud! UAW.
Before Unions in factories, you worked 16 or more hours 7 days a week. If you missed a day you were fired. That's it.

You really gotta be an HHR Geek to appreciate this. It's 3 old guys running around at high speed. Most people would rather have a root canal than watch this. Go ahead and try it.
