B and B uses Coremat® in constructing the bodies even though it is expensive and difficult to work with. Coremat® is is a microsphere filled, random laid, chopped fiber polyester fabric with excellent conformability. Laminate thickness can be quickly increased with reduced resin usage, resulting in overall weight savings of 18 to 30% compared with an all-glass lay up. Gel coat appearance is enhanced through the print blocking abilities of Coremat®, which also provides high impact damage tolerance with twice the insulation value of all-glass laminates.

Labor saving with faster laminate thickness building and reduced VOC emissions are also realized with Coremat®. Coremat can be used where other core materials must be deleted to segregate from fasteners, cut-outs and through-hole fittings. It also provides a high degree of screw holding capability. This extra attention to the construction increases the strength of our body and acts as a sound dampener in the completed car.

The frame also incorporates steel brace under the dashboard and between the cabin and trunk for greater strength. The steel brace behind the seats also serves as a solid connection point for the door hinges. Many of today's kit cars simply attach the door hinges to the fiberglass resulting in starbursts in the paint later on.
