Why do you want a full fiberglass body? The car is already really lightweight, if your going for weight loss, theres plenty of stuff inside the car that can be dumped to shave some pounds

i don't believe anyone has ever made one for sale, like most anyone who builds a car to that extreme they make an overlay of the car in FG, then they chop it off and then hang the skin on a tube frame. there isn't a huge market for any car for complete FG bodies.

with the unibody design i hope you weren't planning on using the original chassis/frame anyways and this is a complete tube/box framed car. you will basically destroy an FB by taking it's top off.
