Fiberglass parts?
My truck has its fair share of rust, thanks mostly to a cheap previous owner and poor bodywork. Has anyone here considered a fiberglass cab? I am seriously considering going with a fiberglass hood, but how much would a fiberglass cab cost in comparison to extensive rust repair? Should i learn to do bodywork myself or just give up the ghost and buy a new cab? One thing is for sure on this one, whatever i do as far as bodywork goes, i don't want to have to do it again for a long, long time. Anybody have any advice?

I have seen fiberglass front caps, but I haven't seen an entire cab yet.

Yes, US Body has complete fiberglass cabs. Two of them in fact. One to replace the "stock" set up and one with out a floor to set up on your top fuel frame.
![]() Edit: They also have doors along with hoods and front ends. Quite a good selection in fact.

what kind of truck is it? I have a 1pc fibreglass frnot end I am trying to sell. It was made for a 67 GMC but has a 69 Chevy grill molded into it. I would be willing to let it go for not much more than a fibreglass hood would cost. It's still in primer so it will still nrrd some finishing done. Also it has never been attached to my truck so there are no holes or cuts in it yet.
