Can anyone identify the MFG of this kit?

That looks like a CMC to me (red gel-coat, chopper-gun layup), but @Alan Merklin or @Gordon Nichols would know for sure. @WOLFGANG will have 37 relevant pictures, somehow right at his fingertips and ready to post.

... but a donut and 5 bucks for the coffee says it's a CMC.

Stan is correct, CMC/FiberFab. It looks like a solid body and in good shape. That could be a good start for a really nice car and can be painted any color you want, with proper prep work.

You may want to become a supporting member so you can download the CMC build manual under Resources above.

Agree FF/CMC. Kit sold for about $8k back in 1988 plus their blotted shipping from Miami ($1400 plus $250 crating). Somewhere I have mine being unloaded still in crate off a Pilot truck!

Umm cream filled donuts, all around.

Classis Motor Carriages ( CMC ) or Fiber Fab ( FF ) In today's market build this right and sell it, you'll have some serious profit ~
