The main GRP body moulding of the Quasar stretches from the nose to the tail and is bolted to the frame in a (surprisingly) few places. It incorporates the headlamp housing and the windscreen recess - the screen is held in by silicone sealant with a stainless steel trim strip over the join. The rear bulkhead/mudguard [fender] and the boot [trunk] floor is a separate moulding which is bonded to the body. Both the front indicator [turn signal] and tail light lenses are very thin translucent GRP mouldings made by a company specialising in model-making. Like all mouldings for the Quasar, the body materials are polyester resin and chopped-strand glass mat (epoxy resin, carbon and kevlar were not in general commercial use at the time).

The other mouldings used in the Quasar are:

Boot [trunk] lid - A simple moulding hinged to the body at its forward end. The general quality of the Quasar can be illustrated by the provision of a stay for the boot lid and the use of a high-security cylindrical barrel lock.

Seat base - This moulding simply rests between the frame rails (laterally and longitudinally) and is upholstered with a central pad and wings on either side which overlap the side covers. The front end of the 'hammock' seat is fixed to the front of this moulding.

Rear mudguard [fender] - This moulding bolts to the bottom of the boot [trunk]. The Quasar specification lists optional panniers which, I believe, bolted to the sides of this moulding.

Dashboard/engine cover - This moulding covered the top of the engine and the secondary steering head. The instrument panel itself is a separate alloy panel, covered in leathercloth. The cleverness of some of the detail design in the Quasar can be seen in the fixings of this moulding - two bolts hold the rear end to the frame, while the front has two pegs which locate in corresponding slots in the body moulding - very simple.

Footboard/side covers - These two mouldings, one left and one right, both cover the engine and frame, and provide the footboards (actually more like old-fashioned running boards). Again the design is clever, as each solidly locates in the frame at its front end and is simply held in place by a single Dzus fastener at the rear.
