I am playing around with the idea of swapping to a full Fiberglass body. The F/G panels will be bolted in place from behind by way of glassed in studs. The fenders and door skins would be removable but look like they are part of a solid body.
My question is this: has any one delt with zero-kewl914 on ebay and if so how was the quality of the 'glass?
I really like the idea of light weight removable panels, but could I make it look good?
Here are some pics of this guys stuff. Here is a link.

Good fiberglass is too hard to find. Roger leaves his stuff in the molds for a long time to ensure that it retains it's shape but most places pull it out quickly so they can pound out another one ASAP. Even if you have good molds you can make bad parts.
