I installed a six point pro street style roll bar.  I will never allow anyone to ride in the back because of the bars going over head and the cross bar for the main hoop.  With the pro street style bar I can get in and out of the car with ease because the door bars are bent out of the way and the rear bars follow the roof and back window lines so it doesn’t go through the rear seat.

Why do you want a roll bar? I installed one cuz I thought they looked cool, which is the most important criteria, right? I started with making just a four point, but ended up with more. Not sure if I'd ever do it again because they really limit accessibility.

Whoever installed mine (the car came with it) hacked up the rear interior pieces to get the rear section attached and also had to cut the carpet to get the front bars attached to the car floor.  The front vertical section of the roll bar rubbed on the front seats and that upholstery was damaged too.  I can't say it's a desirable thing to do just for "looks cool" purposes.  I can say that it cost me a lot of time to fix the rear panels that had been hacked and $$$ to get the seat upholstery properly fixed.

Still, if you want to come and get it, it's yours.  I know where it is and will be happy to dig it out for you.

Where did the rear legs attach?
Just wondering.

It's been over 30 years but I seem to recall that they attached to the rear wheel wells, high on either side of the rear seat.

Just remember to be careful where you and your passenger are in relation to the bars. Aftermarket rollbars, roll cages are mainly designed with the driver wearing a helmet. Folks have died in accidents on the street because their head hit the bar. And no, rollbar padding is not good enough to absorb impact in a collision.

Just something to keep in mind, I ended up using a containment seat in my red truck after the cage went in to protect my head when not wearing a helmet. But that is a seriously impractical option for a regular street car.
