A very worthy project indeed. Have you considered any of Aluns GRP panels? I can vouch for the quality of the nose and front valance and the recent wings look superb. Just a thought.

Are you going to do this one to the same standard as 969?

Everyone who knows Mike knows he's already afraid of filler on his panels so i think more polyester is out of the question.Ken R wrote:A very worthy project indeed.

GRP's a great solution for cars that are intended to be used and driven regularly, but even I would question whether it would be the right way to go with an historically significant car, unless the plan is to strip it and turn it into a trackday weapon of course.jeroensprint wrote:.....Everyone who knows Mike knows he's already afraid of filler on his panels so i think more polyester is out of the question.
