Ok, roll-bar material is choosed.
But better wheels are very hard to find in Estonia, here are no car model shops and that's because I get these wheels on old Camaro model.

Again little update.



I used original Golf 4 parts, what i made longer. It need a little work and then it's ready to put it on the dragster. Tomorrow I sand it a little and then I use filler to get better end result.



And one question to last pic. What do you think is this better now or I make it as long as basic plate ?

Today I had made race car door. I lost speaker box with speaker and handgrip. New polster will be ready soon.
In pic you can see first coat of filler what need a lot of refinement.
