Defunct manufacturers
This is a list of names of some of the largest independent manufactures that are no longer in existence. This is not intended as a comprehensive list.

Many of the names of former companies are still used as brand names by other companies. These are listed in the section on active brand names.

Body
Ellis James Premo, Body Engineer for the Corvette, presented a paper to The Society of Automotive Engineers in January, 1954 entitled “The Corvette Plastic Body” (http://papers.sae.org/540257/). In it he states the following: “The body on the show model was made of reinforced plastic purely as an expedient to get the job done quickly.” “Although we were going ahead with the building of an experimental plastic body in order to get a car rolling for chassis development work – at the time of the Waldorf Show, we were actually concentrating body-design-wise on a steel body utilizing Kirksite tooling for the projected production of 10,000 units during the 1954 model year. It was some time later that we decided to produce this quantity in reinforced plastic.” “About this time, some doubt was expressed that we should build the 1954 model of steel. People seemed to be captivated by the idea of the fiberglass plastic body. Furthermore, information being given to us by the reinforced plastic industry seemed to indicate the practicality of fabricating plastic body parts for automobiles on a large scale.”
