The boss has these already but they haven't been used for a while. Anyone interested in them? If so then I will dig the moulds out, clean em, check em and get prices for the following:

GRP Frame, GRP Skins
GRP Frame, CF Skins
GRP Frame, Kevlar Skins

Kevlar Frame, Kevlar Skins
Kevlar Frame, GRP Skins.

If no interest then its on the back burner.

I would be interested in a GRP frame and skin.

However, I don't want you to go to all the trouble of digging them out, then give me a price which is way too much for my budget. What's the ball park figure you're looking at?

if the quality is as good as the bonnets you showed me when i picked up the radiator then I will probably have a set off you however rough ball park prices will probably help :)

Had a chat with the boss about this.

"So, Composite Doors"
"NO"
"But we can sell em"
"NO"
"But people want em for their Competition cars"
"Well, they way to do them is increase the depth of the frame, put a bit more here, then that bit is also bigger, theirs a brace angle their, hmmmmmmm, we'll look at them soon"

So going by that they should be dug out soon *happy*

He has pointed out that at over 100mph the doors "flap" under the pressure, however I want to sit down for a day with the boss, who's been doing this for over 20 years, and work out the best way of doing the doors.

So until then, I need LOTS more interest to convince boss that they are worth doing (and doing right) and and help from people who already have some from other's and the problems they have encounted.

Cheers,

Smudger
