I'm wanting to reproduce the engine sheet metal in fiberglass. I know about Getty. If someone has a set we can use, we promise to get it back to you in the same condition or blasted and powder coated, if you wish. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Still a steep learning curve on 5 pieces of tin = too much work imho

or buy the fiberglass and mold from that ??

Actually I have some repo stuff from JP I would lend you and its simpler...

Mark is no fiberglass rookie. I think he might actually be at the upper end of the learning curve.

cheap solution for you - i have a Beach Boys set of 3 of the 4 pieces (frt, sides) in FG, plus the oem tin rear piece from my oem engine - $100 cash takes it all; just stop by the next time you drive from Reno to Sacto
