Cage bulders in Vermont area
Cage bulders in Vermont area
I'm working on turning a '73 BMW 2002 into a hillclimb, tarmac rally, etc. car. I'm not ready yet but will at some point need a cage builder. I don't have VT Sports Car money so who else builds cages that would ultimately meet both the NEHA, NASA and Rally America rules (FIA spec probably)? Thanks.

Re: Cage bulders in Vermont area
Joey Kale does nice work but I am not sure if he is familiar with the FIA App J Art 253 cage rules. That is how I would do a cage today because both RA and NASA RS accept a fabricated FIA cage.
The older I get the better I was.
Re: Cage bulders in Vermont area
Another endorsement for Joey. Our friend Charlie North, in East Wallingford, builds cages and does fabrication on the "fine art" level. Chris Howard, in the Worcester area, has done good cages for several folks in this series.
Walter Clark and Don Taylor do Tech for the eastern leg of the Rally America series (most of ours as well), and should be able to hook you up with a copy of the standard. Pay attention to our standard as well, especially as it pertains to preparing the car for cage installation.

Re: Cage bulders in Vermont area
I would definitely recommend Joey to build a cage in for you. he does great work. He put a cage im my 04 STI last winter.
here are a few pics of the car and build.
Car Completed
I have a bunch more pictures i can show you if you would like. I think the only thing that is different is the Sparcos that are in it now.
