RE: HEIGHT OF ROLL BAR

Martin
I have singles but taking a line between the 2 at the centre of the body mine would be 11.75".Looking at pics of cars with double hoops I think this would be too high,but its a starting point.I have had the roof on anad there is plenty of clearance.
Been out in the garage this morning and it wasnt too cold

Pilgrim have there's set at 215mm from centre of rear scuttle to the underside of the hoop, this is an important measurement on a Sumo as the rear hoop also supports the hood.
