It was told by a reliable source that a one piece hand laid front end for a C1 is as good and perhaps a little stronger than the press mold front ends. This is in reference to building a retro car with an aftermarket frame, motor etc., where originality is a moot point.
I was surprised to say the least because it is certainly much cheaper..... I am considering a complete front end with dash for my project since my body man isn't making enough headway to suit me....in fact no headway! Like everything else, if you want it done ...do it yourself. So it looks like I'm going to have to educate myself on glass work...which I really didn't want to have to do.
I know that several of the forum are hands on expert fiberglass men.. Especially on Corvettes...
What say 'ye o learned colleagues...? Is the fit and trim comparable? Strength? More or less difficult in any area...Pros ...Cons
Thanks ...Stan M.
