When building the Bennett car a steel tube was put around the cockpit and the fiberglass was rolled around it and I was going to put some pop rivets to finish the illusion but came to my senses. Glad tubes were put around hood and trunk as the hinge brackets could be welded on instead of glassed to body. Most fiberglass hoods and trunks have inner and outer panels that are glassed together to make finished part. Could the inner glass part have been replaced with aluminum bonded to tube frame then outer glass skin glued or glassed at outer edge where its wavy? Interesting to see how others solve problems to get results, I like to go to car shows and see how cars are put together and how problem areas were solved, some good and some not so good, but we don't know persons skill or resources so I don't judge, still like to look tho.
