[DML] Re: body panels

[Reggie_Knowlton@xxxx]

You're comparing a limited edition automobile to one that was birthed during
the early days of rock & roll, can't be done! Here's why: DeLoreans' are rare
and if you start putting glass panels on them it can and will destroy the image,
sorry, just be a careful driver or a really good metalworker in stainless

Subject: [DML] body panels




Here's a question.......
We all know that Corvette owners can easily get remake fiberglass panels
for their cars, and I was wondering if their was a possiblity of
creating fiberglass panels for the D. Well, I was flipping through my
copy of Stainless Stell I llusion and saw a picture of a yellow D on a
lift at Lotus during development. The caption goes on to say that the
car was an early prototype with fiberglass panels, so here goes, Would
it be difficult to create a mold from existing stainless panels , and
manufacture fiberglass panels for the D that could be painted, without
sacrificing the supply of stainless panels? Maybe other materials coulf
be used also (i.e. saturns?)
