Roll cage support plates - 3mm is the minimum according to MSA regs. I want it fitted properly so i can get car passed for stage events.

it'll either be a great race, or plenty of shots of nothing inparticular, with random waffling by the commentators to fill the red flagged spells!!

Found some really nice seats for Red at the junkyard! From 90s Honda Civic and in mint condition...not even a speck of rust on the bolts or frames! Cheap!

Nothing! Given the condition of the interior of the car, I expected Old Lady Smell and perhaps a crocheted tissue box cover.
