Two reasons why I hate my car:
1. It'll never be finished
2. If it is ever finished, it'll never be as nice as this ones gonna be.

Aluminum cage or lid that fits around the top with through rods in the corners? stainless straps with holes drilled the whole length?

Here you go Todd a little help. I took it from JP's signature

"98% of fords are still on the road, the other 2% made it home or are chevy powered!"
 
well i came up with something other than those "straps" to hold the cell down, i welded studs on the front side to bolt it down, same in the rear. i made it out of .060 alum and rolled a couple of beads in it.

Thats pretty slick! I like that cowl cover you made for your red car too! I think you should sell those along with your inner fender panels
