Bolt in rollbar? The problem with a camaro is there is no frame to attach to in the back 1/2 of the car so that would be the only way to attach one. With proper cross bracing it should offer enough protection to keep the roof off the drivers head.

He is lucky they quit racing it when they did or it would be a real mess.

Back in the early 70's the SCCA rules only required a front brace from the rollbar forward and then the rules changed about 1980 and they mandated a full cage. That would mean bars would have to come off the front subframe and punch through the firewall and dash following the roof line of the top of the car and attaching to the rollbar. When that happened to a subframe only car they were pretty cut up to get the car to fit the new rule.
