    Update:
    The Falcon is now away getting the roll cage fitted, It will be a homologated 6 point, period, bolt in cage, a much more expensive option but something I felt fitted the period of the car I am trying to build.
    The 1964 Monte Carlo Rallye Falcons did not race with a roll cage fitted - As you see in many early pictures, safety in pre 65 cars and tracks was rather minimal to non existent.
    This 64 Mercury Caliente had a roll cage. not sure what happen to the wheel!.. Rim failure?
