Question
I have a crack about 8" long the edge of the front of the top about an inch up from edge. I would like to try to repair it my self. what materials and how should I go about it. Thanks

Answer
I don't think my corvette is where I would try to learn how to do my first fiberglasss repair. Therea are many good corvette restoration books out there- I suggest buying one. Fiberglass is fickle and tricky, and not really my forte. I personally suggest you have it professionally done. Bill
