Gibbon Fiberglass Reproductions was a company based in Gibbon, Nebraska, known for producing replicas of classic American automobiles. The company specialized in creating body and chassis kits that catered primarily to hot rodding enthusiasts. Among their notable offerings were replicas of the 1934 Ford 3-window coupe, the 1928-34 Ford roadster, the 1929 Ford sedan delivery, the 1937 English Ford Anglia, the 1932 Ford 5-window highboy, and the 1939 Ford convertible.
One of Gibbon's most ambitious projects was the highly accurate replica of the 1933-34 Packard coupe/roadster. This model featured molds that were taken from an original vehicle, ensuring a high level of authenticity. The chassis was designed as a special ladder frame equipped with Chrysler torsion-bar suspension, and customers had the option to specify any V8 engine for their build. All vehicles were sold exclusively in kit form, allowing buyers to assemble their replicas according to their preferences.
