The correct answer is the Woodill Wildfire. They also made glaspar kits for stock chassis' (so you can be considered correct) They began production in 1952m with a fiberglass body. They were available as both a kit and a fully completed production car, although several hundred were made this way. It was a low-slung roadster. It used many parts from the Jeep!! It was based on the jeep chassis also, but the 90hp engine could be replaced by a Cadillac or Ford engine on request. Production ended in 1958.

Bill Tritt who was building the G2 roadsters first, later made bodies for the Woodill cars. A number of both, had the Mameco Chassis

The Glaspar G2 is recognized as the " first ever, mass-produced, fiberglas-bodied car "
