    Just my 2 cents, but since you have to start by working on the mold, then all the manhours to make the body, not to mention the expence of it all. Wouldnt it be a lot easier and possibly cheaper to just buy a body? Ive seen some decent glass T bucket bodies on ebay for around $250. I know its cool to say you built it yourself, but......
