WTB roll cage for my '89 1LE

Hi everyone,

I am in the process of searching for a SCCA legal roll cage for my '89 1LE, as I am returning it to its "as raced" condition in '92. I know that Autopower still makes the correct cage, but was wondering if anyone here had one that had been taken out of a car that they would like to sell.

Thanks,

Jason

finding one of these cages will be like finding hen's teeth. Check over on the classified section. I'd guess you'll be buying a new one.

I have no idea if these are any good, or SCCA legal but a friend sent me a link to this a few days ago...

I took a look at the link, but I'm not sure if that is the same style as was in my '89. The mounting points where the original cage was bolted in are still there and after tracking down the team that raced the car originally they indicated it was an Autopower cage - not sure if the Autopower was a spec cage for SSGT or not.

Call CSCRacing in Canada (Ontario). They still have the JIG they used for the players cars and I think the various versions for the different years. Last I checked it was $1150 for the complete cage.
