Bodywork suggestions

Does anyone know where I can purchase bodywork similar to the global gt lights style of full bodywork. I'm looking at a single seater hillclimb/sprint car, chassis building is not a problem but I don't fancy doing all the fibreglass myself

Obvious question is why not just buy the standard bodywork and fit lights to it?

Spire sportscars might sell you the body without their chassis - worth a call. Might feel a little roomy with only a single seat but looks rather cozy with two so might be ok.

Some of the 750mc car owners have pulled bodies out of their personal moulds in the past, but you'd need to turn up at a meeting and do the hard buy with an owner who's body you fancied (ooer )

A bit unique in as much as it can be built as either a front engined RWD. Or as a rear transverce with car engine. Or front engined RWD or rear engined with a bike engine.

Only thing is it dose not lend it's self to a single seater setup due to its width compared to say a global light Ect.
