I am trying to decide on whether or not to go with a roll bar/cage. I want to keep the rear seat useable if possible. Can you guys post pics or email them to me so that I can get ideas? Where can I buy one, or would it be better to have one made?

You can get them from Autopower. They have one with the removable cross brace.I have the 6pt bolt in cage, but I had no desire to ever use the rear area for seating again.
There's pics below at my site. ------------------

Maybe check cobraautomotive.com
I think they have them and so does Tony Branda: cobranda.com
but I believe his says it does away with the back seat.

Yep,
Branda's roll bar does away with the rear seat & says to use the 65 GT350 rear tray.SilverblueBP,
I checked out your pics. AWESOME LOOKING RIDE!!!
Does the K&N Xtreme top air filter make much of a difference in power with the Shelby hood scoop? Thanks.

I would think that the lid would make a big difference. Air would travel through the scoop and be forced directly into the motor. Looks like a good idea to me.------------------

Right,
Looks like a good idea but I wonder if it's worth the $$ in terms of added HP???FYI-No roll bars at Cobra Automotive (just about everything else though for performance enhancement).

I'll have to see if the lid makes a difference. Our Mustang club here in Bend is having a Dyno Day this Saturday.------------------

If you've got the time, it might be interesting to see what, if any, difference the dyno will show running (1) with the K&N filter top, (2) with a solid air cleaner top, (3) with no air cleaner at all..... Keep us posted!
