Default 67SC Body

Does any one make a fiberglass or carbon fiber body for 67 427 SC?

I believe Lone Star Classics does, but I could be wrong

Default Try FFR

jimmymac I believe that the FFR Smith brothers made a carbon fiber body. They ran the car at Run&Gun in 1999-2001 one of those years. I know that it needed some 200 mph tape for a repair. The body was very lite and strong. Want to say about 100 lbs total. FFR is the guys to ask. The body was not cheap. Rick L.

Just about any replica maker does a body in fiberglass, but the only one that I know of making CF is that guy in Texas. I can't remember his name but you may be able to find it using the search function.

Found it. Here's the thread;

Did you know you posted in "FE Talk"?
Anyway, as far as I know, all the S/C's had the same body, regardless of year. I think they were all produced in 65, sold as 66's with only a couple being sold in 67 to dealers.

I'm not sure if his business is up and running yet but you might try Sagebrush Roadsters and see what he has. He's just getting started though, so I don't know if he's selling yet or not.
Good luck!
Larry
