  • Little update on the D Mod Festy...

    Well, it's been a long summer, and I took it off from working on the little car..

    If you don't remember, I rolled it... and decided to gut it, chop off the top, and weld in a cage, make it a REAL D Modified car... LOL..


    Well, I got back to work today, with the tubing bender and got the two main hoops bent up..

    More as I progress, hopefully tomorrow, I will get a lot more elements into place..







    Have had 6 Festys... and counting...

            Looks great!
            BTW, did you ever figure out how fuel poured into the car when it rolled?

                    It's not finished..... just updates...

                    But, I doubt I will put a Petty bar in it... it's just Autocross.. won't see track time.

                    It'll be plenty strong when I am done.. it'll have gusseting, and some more diagonals for sure.


                    It's a Weber design, Holley, like a Weber 32-36

                        You could start making roll cages for festiva's and sell them since summit doesn't anymore :-0) Looks good.
