Anyone got pics? Recommandations? Mustangs Plus sells a 4 pt but I sure would like to see one before I buy. The main reason I want one is to provide a mounting point for a proper shoulder harness...I am not comfortable with just a lap belt.

i'm in kind of the same boat you are. i want one for the same reason as you but i don't want something that looks out of place. i've been considering a shelby style rollbar with the rubberized coating and the shelby inertia reel shoulder harnesses but i would have to have it custom made for the coupe so i'm not real sure. mine would only be a 2 point however, just like the shelby's, it'll even have the mount to bolt into the factory shoulder harness mounting point in the roof.

I have a 4 point rollbar in my 70 mustang. It is essentially the same as your car for rollbars. I bought mine from Tony Branda's. The quality and fit of the rollbar are great. I would definitely buy another from them.

Hey! Long time no type! I had a 65 with a full cage, 8 point. Couple of things i did to make it more aesthetically appealing and "hidden", I followed the door lines with the main hoop. Slanting it back slightly. Also placed the cross bar on the main hoop as low as i could go so that access to the rear seat was still available. You can only go down to 2 inches above the driveshaft tunnel. The rear tubes hugged the roof and then dropped down through the rear speaker dash. The door tubes I "S'd" to make the in and out access easier. Wish i still had picks, because it came out great and was as hidden as a cage could be, but still functional too.
