Title: * Seeking Info * Rare Fiberglass Tub Manufacturer

Spent a lot of time researching this to no avail; therefore I'm hoping folks here can shed some light.

Looking for the manufacturer/Company that produced the below fiberglass tub.

It was on a 1948 Willys when I purchased it.

IMO, having been around a lot of fiberglass Jeeps over the years, this one was high quality. There were no markings / branding anywhere on it; however, it has molded rear flares and a slanted fiberglass dash - which I haven't seen on any other model.

No idea what year the tub was produced, but I'd guess that it was a while ago.

Thanks a lot for the assistance!

The below tub also appears to be from the same manufacturer (note the rear flares and slanted dash):
