55.2-59 Who Sells This Under Dash Valence?

[_Ogre]

Now: Where do I find the "Idiot's Guide To Making Fiberglas Parts" How to pull this all together?

ask and ye shall receive

seriously, just ask away. i did all of my fiberglass in a finished painted cab, no doors or interior, but everything i did inside or under hood was in a finished cab. gotta remember that i did the column cover, valence (fascia), console and sub enclosure as one piece of artwork.

look at this pic to see the bones of my fascia/column cover, light stuff is wood, dark stuff is cardboard mailing tube. i started out with a few brackets that were welded to the dash for a simple sheetmetal fascia that sorta sucked. i made a plywood L with a couple dados cut to staple cardboard into.

the tube is 4", i cut it into half and quarter radiuses on the table saw and started stapling, gluing and taping in place. i went thru a lot of supper glue during fiberglass work. start shaping and taping until you like the shape. it's pretty easy and vey time consuming and maybe a little addictive...

the compound curve used the tube inside for the top and pie cut tube on the bottom; there's 12 pieces just in the left side of the fascia

the column cover uses a piece of mdf for the top U, mdf squares for mounting blocks to the column and half tube piece. this is the first full layer of 3/4 oz matt (used for all my glass work), there are probably 4 or 5 layers of 3/4 oz matt on the fascia and console. 7 to 9 layers of 3/4oz matt on the sub enclosure

most of my tape, wood and cardboard is still there as part of the structure impregnated with resin. some of the cardboard was removed
