The fiberglass is certainly well seasoned. Your body is from back in the day when they were of great quality. The body I bought from Jack, 3 1/2 years ago took $10K in body work to get up to acceptable standards. By the time I got this body, he was very ill and in bad shape phisically and Fiscally. The body I wound up with had been fitted to a very different frame and required lots of alerations in addition to all the work required to get the doors, hood, and trunk to have acceptable gaps. My accepting the body was largely my fault since I took it from him long before I should but I'd been told that someone was going to padlock his shop and I wasn't about to have my car in there if that happened. I wanted a NAF body to replace the one I'd had for a long time that didn't do wo well when I took it out through the desert. My bad. All in all, an ugly situation, but have pushed through, with lots of money spent and lots of help from friends. Better luck to you!
