    Update: Here are my re-designed mounts for the Capri/323



    These are the partially finished castings - still need to be drilled & tapped. I'll have pictures of the finished parts later today.

    Still looking for volunteers to come up to my shop to engineer a bar for the Festiva

                Not ready to take money yet, thanks! I'll keep that in mind, though.

                I'd need a decent afternoon to take measurements & make the mockup. Minimum 4 hours

                Can you send me some pictures of them? They will need re-design for casting, and the bars I've sourced mount differently

                Sorry to hear that Don't think I'll need any of the FMS stuff in-hand, just a car to work with for an afternoon

                Here's the finished Capri strut bar: (image is a link to an album)

                          I wouldn't mind buying just the raw castings. I can do the machining myself.
                          This would also be a great item for the Festiva store.

                            I made some of the base pieces if anyone's interested in a set. I haven't had time to fabricate the rest.

                              I am very interested.
                              Please post a pic. I want to be your first customer.
                              Are they cast or machined from billet?
