Mr. Ed,

Re: 1990 Corvette Stick Stocker
The roll cage was a pre-bent Jegster kit. All in all I thought the kit was fairly well put together. The bends had some deformation which is expected with a non mandrel bent tube but all of the required pieces were there. I used an 1 5/8” hole saw and a carbide bit to make all of the fish mouths. I’m by no means a fabricator but the welds and fitment are presentable. The welds were made with the Miller TIG.
