Vette(s): 1981 Blue Ice Met. w/pearl ghost flames TKO500 5speed. LS1 Swap 3.45 Dana 44.
The tail, nose, and lower valance (can't see that one). Minimal body work to get a good fit to the body. The tail piece is regular fiberglass and the nose and valance are "Tru-Flex." ACI had their vendor trailer at the car show in Columbus a couple weeks ago. They had tons of vette body panels there. Nice guy's to talk to.

I bought a couple body panels from ACI directly. No problems with shipping or product. I agree, why deal with a middleman. I found that the prices between them (ACI) and Ecklers or Mid America Motorworks is just about the same. These places are also supplied by ACI.

Are they on the pic you have here? I'm mostly interested in a taller hood because with just a Weiand manifold under my Holley,& with a dropped base air cleaner,its touching the insulation enough to have scratched the chrome until I wised up & put a rag over it now.But I was also considering the "ground effects" fiberglass rocker panels,etc. too |idea|

Vette(s): 1972 coupe/350 cid/mild cam/4 spd/20 ft. paint (looks perfect from 20 ft.), but it sure runs nice.
Eckler's is having their annual shindig in Oct., may get my hood then. I'm taking in a great show and, at the same time, save on shipping and visually inspect the merchandise before taking delivery.

Sorry, Guys...Eckler's main headquarters, Titusville, FL.
Oct 15 & 16 (Fri / Sat). Rows and rows of nothing but Vettes, swap meet, scratch'n'dent sale....carnival atmosphere.

JR |cheers|

P.S. Titusville is on the east coast, halfway up the state (near Cape Canaveral).
