KEV THE REV 2319 Posted February 8, 2020 Nice work . Where did you get the front corners , or are they the stripped back originals ? . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zappto 192 Posted February 8, 2020 Thank you. As i was told it was cut down because it was broken, and later was made these from resign, i just added to my body. I can say a lot of fitting to make it look proper, i think i like the way they look now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen full repro bodies and roof wings some years ago on eBay but not repair panels . They are a great way to repair damaged bodies . Looks great .

KEV THE REV 2319 Posted January 11, 2021 I think it is cast resin . I have one made by Jim Sourbeck who used to repro these parts some years ago . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
