Sure you could make a carbon or glass composite rocker repair panel. I
think I would be a little concerned with making a complete rocker skin
out of glass or carbon since this is a structural area. Not that it
couldn't be made structural, it is just harder to do and do right. The
polyurethane foam (like Great Stuff) would make a pretty good core
material, especially if it is foamed oversized and then sanded back to
shape. This cuts the skin off the foam and opens the cell structure of
the foam up to get a better bond between the core and the composite
skin.


John,
Could we pull a mold off of Everett B's Ghia and make a composite front
clip for my Ghia??? wink, wink.


Sure. Just fly me down to Arizona in January or February for a week or so. I will bring the mold release.....<G>
