    Fiberglass parts

    I'm getting ready to start fitting the body panels to my '67, and I'm looking for input on the various brands of fiberglass parts available. Fit, finish, etc.

    Not trying to start a thread so people can air their bad dealings, just want good info. If you think your reply might be iffy, pm me.

    Thanks!

    I've heard good and bad about all the main players. The best way its ever been explained to me. It costs a lot of money to make a mold, each time its used there is distortion, the older the mold the less accuracy over time. So, the company you buy your individual part from is only as good as that particular part. So, one guy may have the best deck lid, another may have the best hood, another the best fenders. The irritating thing is that the guy with the best hood may have the worst bumpers. And even more irritating that its changing all the time.

    As far as opinions go, well, unless you have used all three and can compare the differences between them, then individual results are just anecdotal.

    Expect to "make them fit"
