Jim Patillo #48330 These might be the molds Mark Summers made for his Q. They were nice. His Q now owned by Corbin. Haven’t compared pix for positive ID though.

Tom is so right about the work though, it'll be hard, but less so than starting from scratch. What would be seriously cool in this case would be to build a one piece prepreg carbon fuse, or a post cured bladder operation.

It would be WAYYY easier+cheaper than scanning, cnc-ing, lofting. Especially for $300.00 Polyester mods can be fixed with some hard work and a little cash. Good enough to pull all the needed parts anyone would want for a Q2 I would think. see: http://duratec1.com/duratec/?page_id=868 Look for "open mold repair guide" for a example. Good luck! -- Tom Copp Composite Specialties
