is there a way to make body panels out of, say, PVC or some other plastic material. Kind of like saturns or something? My panels are rusting a bit and I want to fix them but It would be a nice way to eliminate rust and lower weight if I could make the door panels and the hood out of a different material. Would that be possible? Would you want to?
