Fibreglass Bodywork repair on a Cobra
Fibreglass Bodywork repair on a Cobra
This was an insurance approved repair on a very special Cobra that has had a small rear end collision, being a fibreglass body however made it an interesting job worth talking about here.
As you can see from the gallery of images below when the car was brought to us the main impact had been taken in the rear offside tail and had caused damage to the wing, boot floor panel, rear bumper and rear panel below the boot lid.
Once we got the vehicle stripped out we removed all areas affected by the accident leaving only the undamaged parts of rear end. once we had done this we took a replacement rear end and cut it down so that we could fit it in place and bond it back to the rest of the body making the car whole again. when the bonding process was complete we sanded the joints back to make the repair flawless and prepped the vehicle for painting and then the final part of the process was to paint the vehicle matching up to the amazing colour and stripes of the rest of the body.
