Thanks all for the info concerning my question on repairing the original
body panels.
In light of some of the responses I received (and the all of other ongoing
projects I've got) I thought I'd hold off on messing around with them for
now,
I've heard and read that there are all fiberglass panels available for the
Bricklin.
Has anyone had any experience with them?
If one where to buy one panel would it fit flush with respect to the
acrylic covered panels or would you have to replace the entire car?
Who makes them?
If there are more than one manufacturer are their panels interchangeable
with respect to one another?

"Good luck repairing the panels without paint. If your panels are riddled
with cracks they are unrepairable period....."

there were simply too many cracks to deal with....."

"Basically, you're screwed. The acrylic panels are non-repairable in the
sense of fixing them to keep the acrylic showing.... "

"Hats off to you for thinking acrylic and possibly to go back to
acrylice...."

"...Unfortunatly I think your only option to do is paint the car. the
panels are to some extent available but to a high price for total
restoration "

"I repaired hundreds of cracks with Bondo back in 1986. That's what I
was told would adhere well to both the fiberglass and the acrylic. It
seems to. However, after all these years, in the right light, at the
right angle, you can see them. Some have re-cracked also...."
