I had it fabricated at High Speed Welding in Westmont - suburb of Chicago. The owner worked with Napleton on all the original Interseries cars - I think he said he did all the cages for the cars except two - and I am pretty sure he does some work for Tim Olsen as well (Tim recommended him to me). Old school shop, he builds dragsters for the most part. The bar is 1.5" roll bar curved and welded to the bumper supports. I had it done as part of the cage so I do not have a separate price but I am sure he could bend some bar, weld to supports and ship - his pricing is very reasonable IMO.

Thanks! Will follow up with Tim.

Johns front crash bar has been modified to swing like the rear, the only downside is that you have to cut a larger slot. High Speed Welding in Westmont IL does the crash-bars 630-971-8929. The last time I was in he had some pre-made non folding ones in stock. They are not cheap but it does protect the corners of the car.
