Do you eat your dinner off the floor? I have never seen such a clean floor!

Looks great!
I'm thinking of getting a cage from MK to weld on locally.
Did you manage to do the welding at the front with the floor and side panel on?

It does look great, well done and a very tidy garage / work shop.
By the way (now with my sales head on) if any of you guys need a cage welding in and fitting etc we can do it for you.
We can also do the pipe bending with our mandrel pipe bender.
Still a great job. What size is the tube?

I paid £120 + P&P for the front hoop and the two bars that go over the head. Just give MK a ring.
