Thanks Bob. Sounds about the same as most. I've done some work on the Dynacorn stuff, not a Mustang yet but a Chevelle and a Camaro. As you said, many of the lines just aren't quite right and take some massaging.. But given my choice of pingin' and dingin' vs. a rusted out hulk......

I suppose some will expect these bodies to come out Concours Correct....don't see that happening. The initial investment to put out one of these metal bodies has to be huge, then to have to start all over to change the lines??? Doubt it, at least not anytime soon or until the company would recoup some of their initial investment.

To call them a "kit" is probably inaccurate, surprised that Backorder Bob would even use the word.... maybe a note on the brochure saying "some assembly required"???? The Chevelle I did took a lot of fixturing, trimming, and adjusting to get it close enough to even start assembling things and ready for body work, I'd say in the neighborhood of 60+ hours... and that was just the metal work, owner took the body elsewhere for the final body work and paint.... Some of the body mount positions were as much as .750" off when comparing measurements from the body to an original frame, and the frame had been on the rack and all dimensions verified... Hopefully not too many people will jump into one of these and order up a body thinking it will arrive perfect!!!

Kind of like the 'glass bodies I suppose, in time I guess some company will come out with the steel bodies that are built right, but like the 'glass cars, expect to pay a premium for the product!!! I have given a lot of thought to one of the Dynacorn Mustangs, but if and when I get one I will get the pieces and put them together myself rather then the complete unit. Labor intensive, sure, but IMO it's a lot easier to adjust the fitment of the pieces before they're welded together to make a complete body....
