Sorry guys... I have been so busy working on my 1973-1975 Buick GS web page, I inadvertantly missed replying to this thread. The above car is a friend on another website I visit alot. I was just looking to see the consensus of the racers thought about this typically for my car. I have a Buick as well and liked the layout of this bar system. I talked to Steve about his car(above) and he indeed switched the knee knocker bar up out of the way.I am indeed adding rocker bars and the bar across the dash will be above the steering column or maybe bent in a U shape under the steering column. Since I am running a stock dash,I don't want to think of impossibilities of putting it under the dash.I am doing something a little off compared to alot of guys. I am adding a crossmamber under neath the car so I can weld the main hoop and short bars to so I wont have to weld the 6x6 plates in the floor to attach the short bars to. In a year or so I hope to have enough coin to get me a rear back half kit and I can weld that to the existing crossmember I am installing.I can only hope my car comes out 1/2 as nice as this car. Sorry if I misled anyone. My car will be a red/orange when its finished.
