I can think of OMP and Sparco. Though Heigo makes pretty much the nicest product. There are more German manufacturers, but I can't come up with the names right now.

Matter produced nice bolt-in CroMo rollcages. For both the standard and the super. A weld-in cage will probably be a diy job, or have a shop do it for you. A shop like Remola http://www.remola.nl/ in the Netherlands could do it for you. They can even certify your cage if you plan to go racing.

Cheers,
Richard

Hi,

No web-adress as far as I know but you can try them at:
+49 725571240 (don't know if the number is still valid).
Oh, and Safety Devices makes a weld-in cage for the 1302 but this probably will fit a 12/1300 body as well.

Good luck,
Cheers,
Richard

RLR racing in the US makes a nice bolt in cage within NHRA specs.

But that attached pic is a very comprehensive cage! Very nicely made/welded!

Did you notice the raised part at the middle just behind where the gearbox opening is? That looks like a boxed section to make room for a 915 or bigger trans

David, do you have more info on that car? like what is it used for?
Thanks,
Walter

PS IMHO This thread should actually be in the suspension section...

Ah yes,

Have seen this car in the flesh. Really, really nice. Have you noticed the braces in the lower corner? They brace the torsiontubes, The cage continues in the front to the beam and it connects the top of the shocktower to the body/rollcage. As said a very nice car. It will be another Remmele showstopper when it is finished.

Cheers,
Richard
