"Turbo Javelin"; The Turbo Optima Roll Cage Tribute

[optiman]

I've been tinkering with the idea of making a Javelin roll cage tribute to the Turbo Optima, hence "The Turbo Javelin"
Since I started making the Javelin roll cages I am almost certain that the the Tubo Optima I bought a few months ago will be dressed as a Javelin instead of a Turbo Optima, no lexan body. But I would like to do something different that pays tribute to the Turbo Optima body. A roll cage that has some details and colors of the TO. So I made this(Re worked photo of course ); What do you think? Need helpfull opinions to fabricate the tribute roll cage.

Great idea Optiman! I think you should make the cab lower and slightly forward as I feel this is what defines the Turbo Optima the most.

Yes the roof definately needs to look lower and with a slight longer line.
Hmmm this would require a new jig... Or maybe playing with the visual aspect of the sail panel.

Something like this. In my opinion it really capture the TO roof lines. What do you think?
