Enjoy a fascinating conversation with Geoff Hacker, Ph.D. on the wonder material of the 1950s, the 'carbon fiber' of its day.

Geoff's work has been seen on television including Jay Leno's Garage, AmeriCarna, and the "Barn Find Hunter."

The Fabulous Fiberglass symposium will take place amid the historic splendor of the 88-acre home of Edsel and Eleanor Ford, at the beautiful new Visitor Center.
