Default Glove box idea?

I was thinking of making a mold of the glovebox and making it out of fiberglass...good idea? Currently I have more important things to do, but maybe if I get bored one day

I guess you can but I don't really know why you'd want to.

I know why he'd want to! To be able to say he has the only fiberglass glove box

I say if you want to do it go ahead, but I'd put it at the bottom of the list of "things to do"

good idea if you like to waste time. Go for the replacement unless you like doing things the hard way.

Not sure what year you plan to make it for but I dont think it would work because (at least on 66) you have to fold the box to get it to fit inside (it must be flexable)
