Default Re: Motion or no Motion - That is the question

I have seen many Corvette street machines featured in the old New York based publications that had these particular fiberglass mods but were not Motion cars. There were quite a bit of aftermarket manufactures selling the type of pieces Joel was using back then. Custom Enterprises, Eckler Corvette etc. (among many others) all had the same pieces. Today, there are probably 6-8 or more companies making the late model Camaro SS hoods. Many of them look identical--- I talked with the owner of Anderson Fiberglass Industries many years ago about his fiberglass products. He said it was very common back in the '60's & '70's for some slick manufacturers, instead of developing a new piece, to buy a current finished piece from another manufacturer and make the mold from that piece. Saved a lot of development time.
