    Hi all, new member here..
    I'm putting a Shelby roll bar (Branda bought) and pair of Scatt seats in my 67 Fastback, making it a little safer now that I have a 6 year old co-pilot..
    Does anyone know if there is a template or procedure I can use before I totally destroy my interior panels?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    If its the fastback bar he sells, I would bolt it to the upper roof supports then see were the legs end up on the torque box and weld [should be just after the forward curve area of the torque box]. mark out roughly were the bar will go on your rear panel. I would then start out small and work the area bigger till it fits. Not sure a template would work if its not an original roll bar? [2Cents]
