What do you guys think of this car? I believe it has the same body kit as mine so if I had mine painted that color I would expect it would look as nice. Looks like a really decent six conversion....if it is a Corvair 6 and not a Porsche 6.

Its the mounting. The fiberglass is normally not secured correctly and it will vibrate/bounce on the tub. The hot ticket nowadays is to glue them onto the existing steel. The ones that where riveted and glassed in alway's break. The glue we have now is stronger than welding and covers more area than rivets every inch or so.

Its not the paint that cracks... its the fiberglass.

Just make sure the body panels have lots of support out on the leading edges. This will help.

Oh.. Rogers car is cracked in places also.. you just dont see it unless your standing next to it.. he also does all of his own work so the car is painted and repaired regularly (when he is running it)
