No sir, it sits in the area right behind the right rear fender well. You can see it in the 2nd picture.

Now that's what I'm talkin' about! Nice car Jason. The battery is in the back. Check out pic #2. I'm especially interested in how the front end is tied in. My cage is similar to yours in many (not all) respects.

Jason,
Thanks very, very much for the pics, it's awesome to be able to check out the details of such an awesome machine. Is there any chance that you can snag a couple pics of mounting points behind the seats? Does the cage tie into hard points in the B-pillar?

Does the car run full coil-overs? I'm curious, since there doesn't appear to be any reinforcement for them.

Thanks, again.

-Jon

Sure enough, there it is larger than life. Sorry for my lack of attention to detail...

Are the sides/ends of the dash board formed differently by the factory to fit around the bars that come down from the A-pillars, or is the dash just ban-saw cut?

Jon, the car does run coilovers. The "X" brace behind the main hoop actually goes through the floor and ties into the rear shock upper mount. Here's some more pics...let me know if I get what you're looking for. The cage is welded to the car in several places..high on the Main hoop, as well as at about the midway point of the upright on the main hoop....hopefully the pictures will show that.

Jim, the just cut the dash to clear the bars. Not a hack job though...it actually looks pretty nice in that area...as it should for that much $. I can tell you the car is incredibly stiff...both through the cage and huge spring rates.
