Truthfully, it went like this. We decided to just convert the car to full tube. It was like a 3/4 chassis car already. So we ordered struts, etc and were going to do that then we started talking to the chassis dude and he was like "Well, this funny car cage isnt exactly right, so we decided to redo that.. then it went to "Well, we need to redo the tubs because we cant get the ride height we want" and at that point, we just said screw it, cut it all out.
