| Heavy Duty Bodies & Cabs
are manufactured as straight as
possible. Our bodies are manufactured from extremely complex molds -
which produce a rigid one piece unit. The floor, roof, quarters & firewall are
generally stiffened with the use of internal ribbing. In addition, your all new
glass body can be made heavier or lighter (within reason) depending on your
application. Average body or cab weight is anywhere from 125# to 600#'
depending on make and model. Our bodies are manufactured from
extremely complex molds - which produce a rigid one piece unit. |

The floor, roof,
quarters & firewall are generally stiffened with the use of internal
ribbing. As far as body work, you need to scuff off the mold flashing - block
sand - prime and paint. The great part about owning a rigid glass body - is that you'll never
have to worry about rust . Once you apply your paint scheme that's it - just wash
and wax.
Installation takes time!! Whether you are installing just the body or an entire
package, the bodies must be through bolted to your original frame. For more detailed

Installation - While we understand
that your project may or may not be a truck, the basics of installation ARE the
same. |

| When building a race vehicle
you obviously want it as light light as
possible. So you cut out the floor pan - wheel wells & inner structure.....So as
far as the body all you are left with is an overweight, floppy shell held together with
old factory spot welds and body lead. Our bodies are manufactured from extremely complex
molds - which produce a rigid one piece unit. The roof, quarters & firewall
are generally stiffened with the use of internal ribbing. |

| Light Weight bodies and
cabs have NO floor or interior panels, windows come blanked in. These bodies
are designed for competition use only. Glass bodies & cabs can be made heavier
or lighter (within reason) depending on your application. Average body
weight is anywhere from 40# to 120# depending on make and model. Installation
is a snap! Whether you are
installing just the body or an entire package, the bodies attach at the rocker panels,
tail pan, trunk jam, door jam, and front and rear window jams. |
