Donor Part for 72 Vette wanted
Hi All,
Does anyone have a Right front fender side marker fiberglass housing section from a donor vette they are willing to cut out and sell?
Tried to re manufacture off left side to no avail.
OR any suggestions to repair the fiberglass housing on for right side , side marker unit?
Much appreciated and thanks in advance again.

Get yourself some expanding foam, pour some in a small box or tray of similar size, trim and sand to fit the housing section, then using it as a mold, glass it up with glass mesh. You can then glass into the fender with the same glass mesh. I typically put aluminum foil over the mold before glassing so the mold can be extracted easier after the glass has setup.
Mix and pour foam... you can make some impressive shapes with this stuff pretty easily.
