Stop Dreaming - Drive the Legend

From wheelbase to body shape, the Hurricane 427 Roadster is a  period-correct roadster inspired by legendary supercars from one of the  most exciting times in auto history. Many who see the Hurricane body in person insist it is an exact replica of an original race car from that era.

The Hurricane’s body incorporates Coremat® for superior durability.  This high-strength material offers a lightweight method of increasing  the structural stiffness of the body in key areas while adding a layer  of protection. Coremat® protects the wheel wells from rocks and debris  that could otherwise easily cause star cracking in the fiberglass.

Why are rolled cockpit and fender edges so important? You will find  that without rolled fender and cockpit edges, the edges are sharp and  abrupt which are difficult to finish and can cause paint chipping in  that area. Also, un-rolled edges have a rough appearance and can detract  from the looks of the car. All of our kits come from the factory with  rolled fender and cockpit edges. This will save you time and money as  you begin to finish your creation. Producing a body with rolled edges  takes a little longer to produce, but we feel it is a fine, yet  important detail on an already great body.

Our body features precise mold seams which enable easier, more  consistent finishing. The Hurricane’s seams actually line up with the  body to the point they are practically flush. These pictures display the  seam lines exactly as they came out of the mold. Also, instead of  locating the seams across the tops of the fenders where the curve is the  greatest and most visible, we have placed our mold seam-lines on the  lower sides of the body where they are the shortest and flattest. This  allows greatly simplified, faster seam finishing.

This feature enables the inside and outside of the doors, trunk, and  hood to have a smooth surface and appear more appealing to the eye. Having inner and outer liners also significantly reduces bodywork and  makes the body more durable overall.

Another helpful feature of the Hurricane’s body is that it may be  easily removed to simplify the painting and assembly processes.
