What is a good book to read on how to fiberglass kits? I am very new to all of this kit car building. Not new to kit cars themselves though. Have been very interested in Lamborghini Countach's for years and that might be the direction I might want to go. Or perhaps something more simple.


Thanks

Joseph

Do yourself a favor and forget the books. Most of them are out of date before they get to print. Basic techiques don't change much but new materials are being developed all the time. Go here...

Read all of their online manuals and then join the forum there. Some of the best and most current info. on working with glass and composites.

I'm in the process of building a plug and I agree with the above post that alot of the books are outdated. I picked up this one on amazon and its actually pretty good, It gives a working example of building a plug for a car. 'Fiberglass & Composite Materials'
