complete fiberglass body?

Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone has heard of a complete fiberglass body of a thirdgen. Not just a drag racing body, something with a floor.
I am just thinking because I am working (slowly) putting a vette dana 44 in my car and thinking of just making a custom frame.

Thanks

no, you cant get just the body shell in 'glass.... the camaro is a unibody car. the shell IS the car.

so its either tube frame with a fiberglass shell, or the metal shell.

umm..

I know the camaro is a unibody. I am just thinking of making a tube frame and wanted a lighter body.

thanks for the link though

I have seen aftermarket fiberglass corvette bodys. I know they are fiberglass from the factory anyways but ther do have after market bods out there. Was hoping for a camaro one.
