Answer:

Yes, it will be too big and far off. You can’t use a fiberglass body as a buck. But you can make a heavy buck using the fiberglass body as a reference. The first problems you will encounter are the headlight rings. They will not match the chrome rings from the head lights. Just an example. It will also affect all the gaps and width of the car.
