Not much pops up on a search. But, are many folks here running his stuff? The ideal setup for me will be a roll bar that can have the front part added later, as I'm not sure when the car will go to dedicated track car. I want it to be a weld in, and attach to the structure. I'm a DIY-er, as well. From what I've seen, the Hanksville Hot Rods setup fits the bill pretty well. I'm hoping to get the bar portion installed in whichever car I decide to keep before the DE's at Road Atlanta start this year (first is usually in April, going off of memory, but Peachstate PCA doesn't list one until June). It may not happen, but I hope it does.
One concern I have is that I would like to see some pictures with how it fits around the dash area. I can't find any pictures of the cage with an interior in the car. Ideally, I'll end up with one of the style cages where the front bars go down through the vents. Does anyone know if that is how theirs works?
FWIW, my only experience with cages is with the Autopower bolt in one. I'm not really a fan of that one. I don't like that it has attachment points on the wheel well, that it goes down in front of the dash, or that it is bolt in.

His cages are very good as is also Izzy's cages (St. Louis, MO). I've got his window net kit but had a custom cage built.
As Doc said - try www.944-spec.org and ask the question there. A lot of CO 944 racers have his cage and probably a lot of pictures you need. Here is also the Hanksville Website. http://www.hanksvillehotrods.com/

Hanksville makes great stuff, and Hank is a very knowledgeable builder and welder. He even keeps a 944 shell in his shop to verify fitment. It'll fit much better than an Autopower or most other mail-order cages.
