hello does anybody know if you can fiber glass the inside of the body work on a bush devil by tamiya as the body needs some support in its old age

I should think so, I used to work in a fibre glass factory, if you use small strips to re - enforce the plastic it should be fine. Just don't use too much activator because it will cause a lot of heat and that might melt the plastic if you're not careful :)

I think the old bush devil is a lexan body and not a hard plastic one. If that's the case use sho goo. I have used sho goo on lexan in the past and it works great, it dries clear too
