Does anyone have pictures of the roll bar that Autodelta was installing in GTA's? I've seen many exterior shots that lead me to believe that they had a basic one that was used w/o removing the back seats.
Roman has an original bar that he is using to make a copy for my restoration. I will ask him to send me a photo. The bar has a rearward brace that attaches to the floor and can be installed without removing the back seat. It is not as strong as later half cage designs but it is what Autodelta installed on the GTAs in the era, and it worked for Rindt's car in the rollover.Does anyone have pictures of the roll bar that Autodelta was installing in GTA's?

Thanks guys. I think it would be best to post the pictures here so other people can use the pictures for reference as well.
This photo might help.....Based on a pretty original car in the shop here the main hoop is about 45mm in diam. and the rear stays are 35mm. They attach via tabs about 17 1/2 inches above the base of the main hoop and run back to the inner wheel arches pretty much parallel w/ the line of the bottom of the windows or about right angle to the main hoop. ......
