The only thing left of the footboxes that gave me any clue as to there original shape and size was about a 1" strip where they were originaly bonded to the inside of the fenders. I had no idea of any other demensions purtaining to them. After a long search for photos on the internet, a trip to Knotts for the AHA show, and measurements off of a couple cars (thanks Phil G.), I finally got started. I used FRP board to replicate the shape of the footboxes.









Once I had things the way I wanted them, I put on my mask and started laying up the glass.





I made the tops for the footboxes separately and epoxied them to a flange that I fabricated around the upper edge of the boxes.



Some sanding and bondo...







And some Primer...







And TA DA! new footboxes.
