Thanks for the info, but those fiberglass front ends would break my car mod budget. Everything I do to my car must pay for itself in fuel savings within a year or I don't do it. My entire budget for rebuilding my car from this accident is $200. It would cost several times that just to buy a fiberglass front end.

So far on the boat tail I have rebuilt the aluminum bar frame, mounted the sheet metal skin, and completed the electrical work. Next up is to line the interior with sheet plastic, rebuild and reglaze the hatch, and then repair the damage to the front end. This is a busy time of year for me since I've have had my first winter frost and I am busy clearing out the frost blasted summer vegetables, setting up cloches, and planting the winter crop.
