There is a lot of differences between 32 Ford fiberglass bodies.
some are hand layed up while some are made w/a chopper gun(cheaper & not as strong). Some are a combination of the two.
Some are not reinforced...they leave that for you to do thus,saving money. Some are reinforced with steel while others are reinforced w/wood.There is also a difference between resins.
I would recommend that you buy a book on "how to make fiberglass bodies". That will teach you what to look for.
The only fiberglass 32 I have owned was a Wescott. It was of hihg quality but, more expensive thansome. My brother bought one w/no reinforcing very cheap & I finished the body for him. Its not difficult but, you need to know what you are doing & the work should be done on a 32 frame.
Good luck & keep us informed......DonDon Meyer, PhD-Mech Engr(48 GMC Trk/chopped/cab extended/caddy fins & a GM converted Rolls Royce Silver Shadow).
