We are building all new jigs and have a mint condition 1935 that we are using for measurements and copying. All glass work will be top notch and use multi layer and cross directional layup.We fully intend to maintain the high quality that Fairlane produced and no one did better glasswork than Fairlane. Working with several top names in the fiberglass business and looking forward to producing some cool stuff.

Think this one through and do some test panels first. Our experience is that ANY woven or unidirectional fibers will tend to show a fiber pattern on the exterior, especially with extreme hot/cold temperature swings away from the temperature the car was painted.
