I am thinking of having a rollcage installed on my Esc Cosworth. The main reason being is that I am stripping out the front and back seats and getting a pair of buckets up front. I was wondering what advice people can offer me on a bolt in rollcage? I.e. Pro's and con's. Also I was wondering if anyone had pics of any Escorts with them already installed and if so what finish did they go with (colour, polished etc)?

Thanks

 

hey mate, recently fitted a roll cage to mine.

ill get some pics of it when im home next and send them on for you.

does look tough!!

 

Thank you Has it made much difference to the handling? What colour did you paint it?

 

Mines been powdercoated in a tungsten grey... basically to match everything i had powdercoated that i could get off under the bonnet.

unfortunatly im not home until next weekend so i cant get pictures for you just yet.

Cant comment on the handling as the car hasnt been used in almost a year now....
but going by other peoples comments there cars do feel alot better with a full rollgace.... but i guess that could be down to personal taste and driving styles!!!

 

Hi

I have for sale a bolt in cage, black. I used the car for hillclimbing but I damaged the car and have bought a Gp A shell hence this cage is for sale.

If you like I could send you photos, whether you are interested or not. The rear of the car was much stiffer due to the steel bar between the rear suspension uprights.

cheers

Kenny.
