    Dash fit looks a whole lot better Steve, nice work!!!! Fiberglass is easy to work with, sometimes I think I prefer a 'glass body to a steel body just because it's so much less labor intensive when things are modified or repaired.....

    Thanks Dave, I think you have to look at it from 2 different ways, Yes its easy to repair but when your building a glass body you have no returns or things like window channels etc etc, all this has to be made and glassed in place which is often a chore. In my opinion building a steel car is a fair bit easier but they both have disadvantages
    Its aweful lonesome in the saddle since my horse died.
