I'm a little east of Andresen and Burton. But yeah, when you get her going we'll have to go out.
well, we won't have to drive very far to get together. 
sweet looking rig... about as hardcore as you can get and still have factory sheetmetal! Love the big boggers and tire carrier too.

Yeah, not too far away at all. Well being full size, lets see how long that sheetmetal is going to last. Anyways, we should get together sometime.

I THINK IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD!! 
The only thing that I would change on it as it stands is where the shoulder bar is for the harness. I "believe" that it should mount no lower than 4" below your shoulders, (even with your armpits). I seem to remember from reading Stock Car Racing magazine & what they recommended for cage-building. I think that the reason for that is so that you don't bend you're spine into an "S" above the attachment point upon a sudden impact.
It's not like you're going as fast as a Stock Car goes, or that you would want to flip it so hard that you'd have that problem, but it's the only thing about the cage that kinda' stood out to me.
Now if it's just a trick of the camera angle or you have the seats low like that for a reason, then nevermind. Just callin' 'em like I see 'em.
