Is GRP / Fibreglass OK for a repair on a steel monocoque chassis or does it need to be metal?
The 1242 has a hole in its floorpan - on the join between the inner arch and the boot floor. Its about 3-4" from the rear seatbelt mounts...and I need to know as I can easily patch it myself if GRP is OK.
As I see it, that should be ok as the loadpath is not really affecting the area, as thats double skin, and the loaded area is triple skin - with seatbelt bolst acting in tension.
