Fiberglass body???

Is there any one making a complete fiberglass body (classic body) including doors, hood, and trunk? Say for a race application?? If so please post links to site.

Thanks,
LR

Check out roguese7ens.com, I saw some of the molds for his fiberglass body. He has duplicated the MKI mini body with doors and all and is sitting it on a steel frame. he says it's for street or track. I'm not sure if he has one on the road yet.
