Ferro (United States) - AllCarIndex

Ferro Corporation was established around 1952 in Santa Ana, California. The company specialized in the production of fiberglass bodies for kit cars, offering a lightweight alternative to traditional automotive materials.

One of the notable products from Ferro was the GLASSPAR G-1, which featured a fiberglass body that weighed approximately 185 pounds (84 kg). This model was marketed at a price of $700 in 1952, making it an accessible option for enthusiasts interested in building their own vehicles.

Ferro's contributions to the kit car industry during its operational years reflected the growing interest in custom automotive projects, particularly in the post-war era when fiberglass technology began to gain popularity.
