Ed,
yes its a full frame car like a Chevelle. My reasoning for the rocker bars is I have 9 lb VFN glass doors and thought it would add strength to the door area. I want to go somewhat like the white cars door bars as I am 6'1 290lbs and it will make it easier to exit. The dash bar is being considered for the reason that I can mount the tach and a small fan on it and the coolness factor. I haven't gotten that far yet,so that may be eliminated if I can't get it up out of the way to miss my knees. Thanks for the helpful suggestions guys keep them coming.
Pat
