No, they closed the Bremerton hobby shop completely. Have to wait on Bangor to come back up.

It was a weird time to set up something like 38 minutes I think. The stuff is good to fill gouges and cracks too. You can sand it after it dries.

May be worth looking into. Fiberglass is messy!

Re: In case you were wondering...

It is an old thread, but Im wondering if anyone knows if the replacement Hatch that Brothers Trucks sells for $695 includes that latches and internal metal hardware as illustrated in this thread? My impression was you just needed to add your own lock and handle - and they sell that too.

Thanks, Paul

I would make sure of their return policy if you end up buying that hatch. The repro one I bought wouldn’t even close hence the pictures earlier in this thread of me altering it and gluing it back together with a million clamps
