:o Did you guys know that corvettes...
 
Haven't been made out of fiberglass for about 35 years now. :truestory: Apparently since the mid 70s they've been made out of something called SMC, sheet molded compound. Now I get to go buy SMC compatible... everything, grind the repair out of my hood and hopefull return my glass filler for store credit. :sadbanana:

I thought this was common knowledge. I'm still in disbelief. You'd think that a rumor like that would have been expelled after 25 years. And I've talked with tons of C3ers about using glass resin on my vette, and never a word. So don't act like yall already knew about this. Gay.

Ohh RUMOR. Been sniffing too much resin. How about "yall" did I spell that correctly?

1) Wow that sucks about the resin. New Corvettes are made out of plastic ad Carbon Fiber.
2) This is the internet, not a spelling bee.

:rolling::rolling::rolling:

C6, what sort of plastic? Fiberglass is mostly plastic techincally. The resin is polyester. I'm pretty sure even SMC is poly resin.
