GM Plastics (United States) - AllCarIndex

GM Plastics was established around 1989 in Mentor, Ohio, as a division of General Motors. The company focused on the production of automotive components and specialized in creating prototype vehicles.

One of the notable projects undertaken by GM Plastics was the development of a Bugatti replica. This vehicle was designed as a prototype for a potential production kit car. It featured a typical replica body characterized by exaggerated mudguard fairings, side-mounted spare tires, and wire wheels.

Despite the ambitious design, only one unit of the Bugatti replica was completed before the project was ultimately discontinued and put up for sale in 1989. The brief existence of GM Plastics highlighted the experimental nature of automotive design during that era, although it did not lead to a broader production run.
