Fiberglass Specialties was an American automotive company based in Montgomery, Texas, that operated around 1986. The company specialized in producing kit cars, which allowed enthusiasts to build their own vehicles using a combination of pre-manufactured components and personal assembly.
One of the notable products from Fiberglass Specialties was the James/Stone Speedster. This kit aimed to transform a Volkswagen Karmann Ghia into a replica of the iconic Cobra sports car. The conversion involved bonding a specially designed nose clip to the front end of the Ghia, along with the addition of rear mudguard flares. However, the execution of this transformation was not widely regarded as convincing.
Despite its niche offerings, Fiberglass Specialties contributed to the kit car market during its brief period of activity, appealing to automotive enthusiasts interested in custom builds.
