Have a customer that wants a roll cage installed on a thing we have for sale at the shop. I was wondering if there was anyone currently manufacturing or selling them. Thanks

Not sure of anyone building one one but did a search and found this one for sale.
https://www.thingparts.com/roll-bar-4-point-vw-of-america-original-does-not-fit-under-hardtop/
but its out of stock, just saw that.
Mike would be a good one to ask though.

There was another source that sold cheap bikini tops and roll/show bars that was called Das Tank (www.dastank.com) however I'm not sure if they are still in business. There are some threads on here that question the quality of their products so even if you can track them down buyer beware.

I have an original volkswagen of america one that I could possibly bring with me from NC to Ohio when we visit in April but we are going to see family in Cleveland so maybe too far, as well. Just PM me if you are interested.
