    I had heard they moved to Utah a number of years ago and that their product was not very good any longer.

    I would think that since the original thread was from 2009 and the last post prior to yours was 4 years back and did not add any new relevant information that you are SOL.

    Poliform made a good 26-27 body I bought one when they were in Santa Cruz Ca and it was well build.
    Dick Williams was the owner and had more years in the fiberglass business than any one he was located in Oroville Ca last time I heard from him, worth a try................ I just checked Google and Dick Williams is listed but retired he has a new 26 body in his for sale stuff ....................

  8. I "may" know where the Fiberglas Trends 67 Barracuda Hood mold is. We're checking now, might take a few days

    Called a #, don't remember it, a few months back. Looking for a glass Austin nose. Got an answer. The guy told me they had moved and lost some molds. Said he would look in the yard and call me back. He did and wouldn't you know it lost the extended Austin mold. He knew exactly what I was talking about. This was in August or September.

    Notice that the previous post on this thread was Dec 2011. Maybe bringing this old thread up will unearth some new info.
    I do know that before George (Crabtree) passed, the molds were moved to St. George, Utah. Maybe somebody from there knows where they are or went.

    Still looking. Found a Canadian manufacturer. Don't know how current the web sight is, but it looks like it will help everyone. Going to give them a call tomorrow. showcars-bodyparts.com

    That looks like a Hairy Glass product. A buddy of mine had a bunch of his stuff on his Super Bee.
