A fiberglass "Jamaican" body was built by Fiberfab back in the '70s. They
had kits for TR3, TR4, TR6, TR250, Austin Healey or MGA. The design was
along the lines of a Datsun 240. They provided the body. You provided the
chassis and running gear. They had offices in Bridgeville, PA, and
Milpitas, CA. There was one for sale this year at Healey Rendezvous in
Jackson, CA.
