Fiberglass bodywork

Hopefully I'm not too far off topic but I'd like to know if anyone has ever stretched a fiberglass body. I just bought an older Topolino body. It will be too short for the chassis that I'm building so I plan on stretching the nose section 6" or so. I don't know how I'm supposed to compensate for the front section getting narrower when I section it. If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

 

Pics might help. I've done tons of glass work.

 

Here's the body. I want to stretch the nose of it. It narrows as it goes towards the grille section. I'm not sure how to compensate for that.

 

Any help would be appreciated

 

I had to modify my 27 t body.
cut up body .
Fit the body parts where you want them then fill the gaps with flexible sheet material. Finish with glass and filler.
This is now your finished buck .
Use this to lay up your new one mold..
Then make body .

 

I have done a lot of jobs like that, where are you located?
I'm in so cal but can give you some a few ideas or options how to go about it.

 

A good friend of mine did a similar job, he cut the body where he wanted to stretch, then he cut the front piece down the middle, then made it to suit, and took about 3/4 of an inch out of the middle at the back to compensate for it getting narrower.. Looked the treat!
