I had the cage,he charged me $100 a point but don't quote me.To put a 12 point cm cage,in my Cuda,a 4 link,shorten my dana,axle's and gear,installed with my spool will cost me $6400 out the door and he supply's the tubing.Give him a call,he's at Norwalk this weekend,but I think he will be back on monday.

STEFF, you need to get some pictures of the B body behind the Mustang! Is that the guy that caged your old Challenger? If so he does nice work.

The B-Body behind the Mustang is Ken's ride. It's an A12 car he is restoring. No race car stuff on that one.

And yes, it's the same guy that did my Challenger chassis work. We've pretty much have been working together on projects since the time he finished my car. He's an awesome teacher!!

Thanks,Steff! I had a 6-point cage put in about 5 yrs. ago...but might want it modified(halo)into an 8-pt. in the future! I'll keep Ken in mind! FWIW...I gave a guy up in Silverwood $300.00 total,parts and labor for mine! He pulled the interior out,put the bars in,and re-installed the interior! My friend from work knew him very well,and the price was because of him asking for a favor!Of course it's mild steel!

What about BondoBob? He's only about 1.5 hrs from Detroit, and his work is top notch!
