    Try Unlimited Products, hope I have the name right, we used to use a bunch of their stuff when we were still drag racing.

    Maybe check Anderson Industries, might be called A-1 Fiberglass or something now. They were bought out a few years back......

    Just got the low down from a bud, He sez it is A&A Fiberglass that makes them, he bought his through Lonestar in Texas. Hope this one helps you Dean.

    Hey Dean, I found it. Check out http://www.usbodysource.com/Cover/Scroll.htm they have the fenders and hood separate, all you would have to do is bond the separate components together......

    Most of these parts are made for racing, which means they are light wt, & not very strong. They also deform & cack easier than the ones made for the street........Don
