Photos of S2 boot

[Vintageant]

Can any kind soul take a couple of photos of how the the two 'vertical' roll cage arms connect inside the rear of the boot? Better photos from a more rear facing angle to the attached. With many thanks!

The roll bar connects to a gusset welded to the vertical bar in the boot, not std equipment on an S2 so you will have to copy the Caterham set up.

Weale has this, but I don't know which chassis it shows.

#3 I believe this shows a boot from  an early 80s Caterham. I think the car is one featured in a magazine at the time (Classic and Sportscar??) . They built a Caterham Kit (1600 Sprint) they covered the build in a series of articles and then ran it as a “staff car” for some time, carrying out various mods also featured in the magazine. I think the mods were mainly cosmetic, the car started off red and Ali and finished up yellow with green wings. I believe the car is the one shown in Weale just after the contents page and there are a number of other pictures in this publication showing various details of it. 

I wonder if the car is still around. (Shown on DVLA Website but no details).

The last picture is an S3, exactly as the 1980 one sitting in my garage.

Thanks all!  Roy Blythe, if & when convenient, could you take a close up shot of how yours connects?

Much appreciated!  Stay safe, all!

Here ya go!  The roll bar is an FIA bar, so a bit thicker than the standard one it replaced, but using exactly the same mountings.  The car is a 1980 1600 Sprint and the roll bar was bought from Redline some 20+ years ago.  Let me know if you need anything else.

Brilliant!  Thank you!  Just what I need! This helps a lot! Really do appreciate it!

Stay safe!
