I wonder if any of the uk dealers / suppliers would be interested in buying these in bulk and running a group buy?

Yeah, did some research and thanks to the effin genius guys on rs25.com found that GD chassis so, 02 - 06 braces fit classics..looked allover the usa for them...$300-$450 seemed to be the going rate for like sparco ones

Some chap local just split his hawker back to standard and had one custom made in the US for like £300..random search on the bay came up trumps going to collect this week. Will update here/project thread with trial fit perhaps but dont really want it in until i find myself some nice seats...hmmm Brides. lairy harness's too i think.

Hi mate, wondering if you could do me a favour and take some measurements from the harness bar for me?
I dont really fancy splashing out a few hundred for one of these so i am going to make one my self.
looking for the lengths in this pic and the length of the two vertical supports, idealy between the bolt holes.
also is the bar inch and half thick?
if you could that would be fantastic

Cheers mate, yeah dont seem that much to them, and have all the tools and equipment to do it.
Have already priced up all the stuff i need, including the rose jointed ends for the vertical supports, just the lenght of the bar would be fine then

i'd take one if they were a reasonable price, they do seem pricey for what they are!! could also get the fitment a bit tighter in the classic i reckon.......

get on it lads

price has to be better than above, otherwise you might not get alot of interest

i would consider taking one that even wasnt powder coated as my mate has his own company and would do it for me
