U.S. Fiberglass

U.S. Fiberglass

Die U.S. Fiberglass Company war ein US-amerikanischer Stellmacherbetrieb und Automobilhersteller, der in Norwood (New Jersey) ansässig war.

1956 baute die Firma unter dem Namen Mark II einen Roadster mit zwei Sitzplätzen und GFK-Karosserie. Die Radstände variierten zwischen 2.794 mm und 2.997 mm. Fahrgestell und Antrieb kamen von Spenderfahrzeugen nach Wahl des Kunden. Die Karosserie wurde auf die unterschiedlichen Fahrgestelllängen angepasst. Üblicherweise hatten die Spenderfahrzeuge V8-Motoren.

Die meisten Fahrzeuge wurden als Kit verkauft, aber es gab auch fertig montierte Autos.
