You can approach this with a couple of different methods.

1) Generate Rectangles on pFrames along the length of your curve and Loft them.

2) Generate a single Rectangle at the start of your curve and Sweep1 along the curve

surely there is a more elegant way to solve this but the first thing that occurred to me.

You can try the function Sweep 1
