Re: [VAC] Ready to pull the body ??? LONG
Hi Jeff, my '57 Overlander is undergoing a similar restoration. My front
end has a brown fiberglass cap on the inside which I have not removed yet.
My fiberglass cap is about 1/8 in thick. It has holes in it where light
fixtures were and a few cracks from antenna installations that were done
without respect for the brittle nature of the fiberglas. Having handled
everything else (and I now have the rear end jacked up for the welder to add
chassis repair) I would second the previous recommendation to leave the cap
in place until after you've re-set the shell on the new floor.
Sounds like you've got the time and the money for your project.....lucky
you.....I'm running short on the money end :-( I've been updating my
websites so you can see what I've got in progress.
