Glass bodies
"ray@gibbons" I was just reading your first post and I have to disagree with you on the quality diferences between bodies. There definitely ARE diferences and I've never heard a complaint about Wescott's bodies, especially the roadster ones - they are number one and the closest to them are outlaw, at least according to people I know who have outlaw bodies. A friend of mine here in Victoria bought a Gibbon 39 Ford convertible (new)a few years back and he wouldn't do it again. He had an incredible amount of glassing, modifying, and reinforcing to do to get it right Things "might" be diferent now but they were really bad then. I know one thing tho, I'm sure a LOT of guys wish there would've been these forums around when they were building their last hot rods!"nobody likes a top on a roadster, but it's nice to have one in the trunk when you need it!"See us at www.topsters.com
Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
