    Rollbar(s)

    Seriously considering changing my order to a 289, but wondering if a rollbar will fit on the passenger side given the fuel fill location? It seems like the rear leg might be too close, but it's hard to tell.

    Thoughts?

    From my own car, I can tell you that it would clear the fuel filler tube. I know it's not everybody's cup of tea, but if you wanted roll bar protection on the passenger side you could always do a full width bar with a forward brace like I did. Purchased the bar from Frank, i.e.427. He can configure the roll bar with a high brake light which is never a bad thing in cars this low.

    Thanks Rick, that's definitely something I'll look into. I've been admiring your car, nicely done.
