Anyone using a VFN fiberglass body?
After many months of looking at rusty projects, I have dreams of using VFN's fiberglass 1964 GTO body as the basis for my PT car. I was really enthused about the idea of a fiberglass body until I saw the last few episodes of American Hot Rod, where Boyd Coddington had to deal with an aftermarket '63 Vette body that would not hold its shape. It also would not accept most anything factory, like doors, glass, trim, etc. Year One did a PT Chevy II that was fiberglass, and the show did not mention the same problems.
My question: is a fiberglass body a realistic option for a real-world (meaning not six-figure) PT car? Or would I just be complicating things?
Has anyone used a VFN viberglass body, and could you comment on the quality?
