Default Looking for roll cage

My son and his friends are putting together a 944LeMons racer and need to weld in a full roll cage. Any suggestions on where to obtain one? They found an old 84 944 that hasn't run in years and sat outside the whole time, so it looks pretty awful. But the body is straight and it ran well when it was parked so we think it should fit the bill. Any thoughts on a roll cage would be appreciated.

Also try http://www.bethania-garage.com/

Roll cage $3300

Not to hi-jack the thread but about the moment I get excited about building a Lemons or Chumpcar, I add up the cost of all the required safety equipment and realize the term "budget racing" is an oxymoron.

We used www.cagethis.com for our ChumpCar cage.

It took about $9k to build our ChumpCar... certainly more than the "$500 expectation" some people have to go racing... but we built a great and reliable car that's done: 1 ChumpRace; 3 club races; and 7 driver's eds.

In terms of racing budgets, that's still on the low side.

Where in IL are you? Pine Tree is in Rock Falls.

Or if you're cheap I'll sell you my bolt in cage and have them weld in a Hanksville cage.
