What was Bricklin car body made of?

What was Bricklin car body made of?

(OP)
There was an exotic car made in the '70's that used a bare stainless steel as the body panels.  It was called a Bricklin, and was only made for a few years.  Does anyone know what type of stainless was used to skin it with?

RE: What was Bricklin car body made of?

The body panels on the Bricklin were made of fiberglass, not stainless steel. Check out the enthusiasts website at www.bricklin.org.

I guess it was the DeLorean that was stainless.  Oh well, what was the DeLorean body made of?

RE: What was Bricklin car body made of?

Yep, it was the DeLorean (haven't you seen Back to the Future?), and I think the skin was made from brushed 304 or 304L stainless.
