UNDER THE STRAW HAT – Restorer’s Insight
If you desire a factory-correct look underneath your Corvette, bonding strips may be added for authenticity—though not required. These panels are hand-laid, meaning fiberglass mat and resin are manually applied into molds. This creates strong, uniform parts with a smooth exterior and a raw interior surface—ideal for reinforcement and restoration. Unlike GM’s original press-molded panels, these are thicker and easier to modify, making them the preferred choice for long-term durability and restoration precision.

Tech Notes
• Truck freight shipping; charges calculated separately
• Freight quote will be confirmed before shipment
• Professional installation strongly recommended

Because Fit and Finish Matter
This one-piece front end isn’t built to duplicate GM's factory process—it’s designed for today’s real-world restorations. Whether you're building a reliable daily driver, a custom street machine, or simply need a cost-effective repair, its hand-laid fiberglass delivers strength, alignment, and time savings over multi-panel installations. A smart solution when originality takes a back seat to drivability and durability.
