Now that I'm getting close to finishing the mechanical work on ol'1343 it's
time to start thinking
about the body. All the panels are in good shape with the exception of the
following:
1. The acrylic is chipped on the corners of the hood and it has circular sress
cracks in the
middle.
2. The roof panel is split along the edge on the drivers side.
3. The passenger door panel is broken where it bends over the roof.
Are WHITE acrylic hoods/roof/door panels available? If not then should I get
fiberglass
replacements (or repair the orignals) and paint them to match the acrylic.
OR... should I paint
the entire body. I'm afraid that if I just paint the replacement panels then
the car might not
look right.
Any suggestions?
