does anyone make any fiberglass body parts for a 1970 charger? i want to build a race car, cannot find anything. thanks!

Not sure.  You might have to get them custom-done to get some that are very good.


One suggestion -- 

The factory steel fenders were a lot more than just a hunk of the car's outer skin, they were more of a whole sub-assembly.  I think keeping some of the steel inner bracing would probably eliminate a lot of the cracking problems people get when running 'glass fenders on these cars.

With the front fenders, I would probably try re-using the inner sheetmetal bracing from an old steel B-body fender of some sort around the front rad support & headlight area.  Just use the 'glass for the outer skin piece itself.

Check out this site. I didn't see anything listed for a Charger but try emailing him. He even has funny car bodies.

This place has great reviews. www.wsracingfiberglass.com
The show car place I have heard nothing but bad about them. Ask around, other members will tell you the same about them.

Hey, you can hate the game but don't hate the player.

I had to Visit that Showcar place in Person because they were taking forever to Produce my Buddy's hood. Slow but the work was high quality from what I seen. LEON. :scratchchin:
