Any info on the roll cage?

[Disco Moneypit]

Whilst having a look through the Discovery photo gallery, I came across this photo of a roll cage.

I have already sent a message to the owner requesting more info, but his wasn't a user-name that I reconised, so I'm not sure if he still uses this forum or not?

Anyway, do any of you chaps know anything about it?

In advance, many thanks.

I have seen a similar roll cage on a black one disco 1 in the telford area but never managed to stop the person to ask

prolly not cheap looking at the size of it

i remember that black disco in the Telford are he lived in Muxton but then i think sold it on. The one on the Bonkas 4x4 site is Tonys disco
tony's Garage :: 1996 landrover discovery
I think it was a one off but not sure
Best thing to do it to get in touch with a fabricator

Thanks for the recent info concerning this guys.

Unfortuently, the recession coupled with the fact that our goverment has been printing money like it has been going out of fashion, which in turn sends Sterling into a downward spiral, has pretty much finished off my business. Added to this, we are expecting a little bundle of misery in August and things are really tight cash wise at the moment.

In a couple of months once we are properly into summer, I'll have a crack at finishing off the Disco. My inner front wings are rotten, I need to fabricate a bigger battery box, rebuild the tired engine, so whilst I'm at it, I might as well look into knock up an internal rollcage myself.

Fecking hell.

Yes, during christmas it costs £50k to do nothing, they are buying work in hope that by "being busy" they can attract more clients.

Investors in people and decent people too.

Our family business is slooooooooooooooow, it's a hard decision whether to take risky jobs on,bombed a sports centre out as they are terrible at paying and in administation.

Compared to previous years quite crap really
