Sorry, first time when you reffered about vegetable fibers I imagine you were being ironic or trying to making some friendly humor.
Well, I didn't kwen vegetable fibers could be used with resin to creat shells for vehible. I kwen it could be used in eco home building, like eco bricks, but not for cars.
What kind of fibers ?
I'm more on curiosity and trying to learn. No intention to build anything soon.
My dad usually refer to binge-drinking as the "liquid courage", and yes, it's a common problem in NE.

Back on topic again: have you never even heard about the Manacá, a prototype from the 80s that had its body made out of fibers from jute (juta), snake plant (espada de São Jorge) and banana plant fibers? You could also try sisal, since it's often pointed out as the strongest vegetable fiber (at least the strongest that you could find easily and legally here).
