check with the RTA about fiberglass body pannels before commiting,
 i was talking with a mate that builds a lot of hotrods and the laws are all changing regarding fiberglass bodys n pannels,
he is currently waiting for the dust to settle before he finnishes or even tries engineering a few of his current chevs etc.
wouldnt like to see anyone butcher their vans and then not be roadworthy/safe.

Hi Mty when reading what you have said about fiberglass panels if thats the case all tilt mack trucks and other fiberglass tilts are in trouble then there is people with TVR ,s and Bowells and austin healey seabring what about camper vans with pop up tops the list can go on and on i dont think thay can police it unless thay make it that all new projects after a certain date must follow a set std any how thats   rizzo out
do it today there might not be a tomorrow

The RTA are in a world of their own, and like nothing more than to wreck peoples lives. A mate is having trouble getting rego cause he hasn't got enough photos during the build. Build started 4 years ago and the engineer was involved most of the way. SO CHECK WITH ENGINEER AND RTA, then paint both sides and don't tell them ;)
make it reliable, or smash it with a big hammer
