I saw this on eBay and would like to find out if this body was produced by Parma please.

I believe it is a 34 Ford Coupe (chopped/modified) - please correct me if I am wrong.

 

I went to Parma's website and could not find it.

 

Can anyone direct me to where I can acquire a new body.

 

Thank you for your assistance.

 

Ernie

Thanks everyone for looking.

Parma also made a similar looking '34 Ford panel truck body. We used them locally in a '97 anniversary race.

No photos Ernie, but I might still have the body packed away. Give me a few days to look.

Like the Champion hot rod bodies, hot rod bodies were made some time ago and weren't in the last catalogs. I remember them from the 80's, and stocks still linger. I was in a raceway recently that's been around a while and had a 3-foot wire cube filled with Lexan bodies being closed out on sale. I found some interesting specimens on top that prompted me to explore deeper, and during that activity I discovered a few of those old Champion bodies. There was at least one hot rod. That's not what I was after, so I don't have a good recollection, but digging around in that bin brought back a lot of memories of bodies and brands long passed.

I never did the sedan but it wouldn't be hard to modify a coupe to a sedan mold if you want one.
