Plastic 356A Coupes?

I have a JPS motorsport coupe.. http://www.jps-motorsports.com/

SAS builds a coupe, Beck is developing a coupe, and I believe Vintage has plans to make a pre-A coupe.  Do a search on here for coupe and you'll get a wealth of information.

I have also seen some coupe bodies pop up in Europe.. not sure who is making them.

Thanks Chris,

This 'thread' of comments and photos I stumbled upon wasn't North American generated.

It had to be either European or 'down under' Australian since several of the posts were in German; several had the quaint 'Gidday' as an introduction greeting; and some of the authors had Spanish spelling surnames....so somewhere overseas someone is knocking out 356A replica coupe bodies...

Bodies that are light weight, and therefore inexpensively freighted to nearest port of entry!... And just begging to be winter weather replacements for winter hibernated speedsters!!!

Carl, whilst in FB, it's a good habit to drop cookie crumbs behind you so you can find your way back. 

South Africa or SAS backlog?

Here's a great build thread for a bent window coupe outlaw. Don't understand the language but the photos are nice:

It's Swedish and if you open it with Google Chrome it will translate it for you.  Don't know if Mac browsers can do that.

Looks to me like it shows pictures of the mold being prepared to cast a coupe body.  Pretty cool!

A few here in UK.....

JPS Coupe

Bart,

There is a guy named Posie (Posie's Rods and Customs) who was making very nice polished aluminum faux framework for the rear side windows.  His shop number is 717-566-3340. I bought a set and was very impressed with quality and fit, as well as very reasonable pricing.  Don't know if he is still doing them, but they enhanced the appearance of my coupe, since I was going for the traditional look.

Thanks Tom...I have done some clicking to find some that were reasonably priced....I have found their web site now...do they just slide on and fit with little adjustment ? 

Chris...where did you get your rear window trim ?

Hi Bart,

Call John, he has the rear window trim. I am not sure what the price is.

Posie's rear window trim is attached with double sided tape, works great, looks good.

That came on my car (JPS).  I believe John is putting the trim on all of his coupes now that are not going for a GT look.

Vintage may build a coupe?  Anyone know anything?

Is there anyone selling just the body and not as a turn key?
