    I have been looking at all the fibergl*** bodies I can find. They all look similar, but this one below seems slightly different. Usually the area below the "door" is only a few inches, this one is longer and gives the look of a channeled frame.

    Does anyone know who makes a body like this?

    I've seen similar windshield frames as this, but not this exact one. I'm sure I'm just overlooking it somehow, but could someone point me in the right direction please.

    speedway motors sell a windshield frame like that... as for the body.. Speedway also sells bodies but not sure if it is the same..

    I think the large area below the door looks strange, not very proportioned..(makes it look like a fibergl*** car.)

    I would be surprised if anyone made a body like that. It wouldn't have been that hard to lengthen the "rocker" like that.

    The "lower" portion of the body is usually a piece of sheetmetal that is formed to make it appear to have a belly pan./

    The windshield is a "Hallock" copy.
