Coupe Body Make...

[krausewich]

Would anyone know who makes this Coupe Body ??
Haven't seen any manufacturer with this shape and
I'm looking for a glass body. Any leads would be
much appreciated.

(edit) It is not... An FFR, R&D/Highlands/ShellValley, Superformance, Contemporary/Lesher,
NAF or Mr. Bruce.. Would love to see a nicely finished Bruce car though...

Thank you for your help ! ! !
Mike.

Only two cars have been built with that body, both are carbon fiber composite bodies. They are as close to CSX-2286 as I could have made them. They use orginial windshields and have rear brake ducts that function. Also, a major difference is when the engine bay is shown, the firewall is back under the front cowl as in the orginial. The one pictured has the orginial wind deflectors on the windshield. I am not sure I will finish the second car with them or not. They also have the rear mud deflectors. One point that always shows a glass body is that most builders have the door, not form the rear wheel arch. Look at a Shell Valley, see the door comes about an inch short of the wheel arch. This makes the mold building a lot easier by tying in the lower side pieces into the body. In some cases the muffler area is also formed with thwe lower side pieces. Again this is the easy way to build a fiberglass body. The orginal cars have were made from many individual pieces. This car has about 46 models for all the pieces., and uses Corvette suspension.
