Roll Cage by Ron Lummus Racing

Today we mounted the Ron Lummus Roll Cage to my Bug. As you can see on the pic we had a lot of fun, because this was a straight forward job. These guy makes high quality parts. Every thing fits at the first sight.
Next step: Rollcage has to get out of the car to get the right colour and then it moves in again.
