Wow, what a wealth on information in one day's time!
Again, my lack of knowledge led me to incorrectly describe the bodies as being made of lexan when they really are made of a much thicker but still clear material. So butyrate is the correct term?
I do use nylon strapping tape on my modern cars to reinforce the pin holes but was concerned over using it on 40 year old paint, but once I've touched up the paint on one of the bodies I'll give it a shot. I do have one local hobby shop that deals in R/C and will give them a check this week to see if they have the lexan tape that was mentioned. But I do have one crack in a corner that I think the hot glue suggestion will be better suited for.
Thanks to all who responded to my request for help. I can see that I'll be hanging out here more in the future.
