Default Looking for a classic roadster body

Does anyone know of a body that fits a CR frame. Or better yet, know of one available?

If it will fit my frame, yes. I tried to contact Bill at Emerson more than a week ago and haven't heard back.

Bill doesn't read his e-mails very often. Did you try calling?

I just talked to Bill. He told me to give you his phone number and personal e-mail address. I just pm'd them to you. He is waiting on your call or e-mail.

Default Looking for a Classic Roadster Body

I'm slowly gathering parts to put mine together. Bought several years ago while the chassis certainly is a Classic Roadster the body is? Has the longer wheel base but without the door / cowl cut outs. I noticed you're in Worcester and I'm just north in New Hampshire. Should you want to compare notes on the build keep me in mind.

I will post a pic or two of the body soon.

John,

Are you sure that it is not an Excalibur?

I have an early 80's produced BRG body that is on a Chevette rolling chassis direct from CR, original owner

As it has been over a month since the OP has been on CC, I can answer at least one question. He is already having the body replaced at Emerson.
