Reply to "Pantera hood wanted"

Gary I;m sure as you say there is a variable in the coach work ... Mels hood he gave me is short 1/4 for the pre L cars ... but I have 3 cars ..my 2 Richards and possibly Ron M. that all measure the same.. so far only 20% are different ?

Joules I;m 100% sure not all the Carbon Fiber is made ONLY IN RENO ... Mel gave me his old unused CF hood made by this guy in Calif. This CF vendor makes CF for the TUNERS ... he has all the equipment necessary to make these structural formed/ in a autoclave...including the new technology of honeycomb backing.

Last week I recieved the fiberglass front hood I will fit it and send it back for adjustments and today the rear deck lid arrived made of 100% Carbon Fiber .. I will fit it and see where the issues are ...then I will adjust them and send it back to him ... he wants me to start selling them but I;m not interested .. but I am interested is sorting out a good fit and a good product.

My consultant is Mel .. lets just say he hass a little experience .. with plastics and carbon fiber ... so with any luck maybe a good product well sorted out with new technology may come out of this ... its on my dime and I will be the TEST DUMMY.

I'll get ya pics this weekend.

Ron
