Re: Aluminum vs. Carbon Fiber vs. Fiberglass

[RMEbstein@aol.com]

FYI
 
I called Dale A. and spoke with him for a few minutes. He says that he can  
do any of them, except that he would need the car for aluminum. The best guess  
for costs are the following:
 
Fiberglass $500-$600
Carbon Fiber $800-$1,000
Aluminum $3,000-$4,000
 
BTW, on Page 31 of the current Hot Rod magazine, Dale is building a  Tiger 
for noted car designer Steve Limpert. It will have an EFI engine,  5-speed, 
aluminum hood, a modified Vette IRS rear end and 18" wheels. The  firewall has 
been severely modified and it's claimed to be an original  Tiger.
