I don't know anything about vintage vac bodies, but I have been watching ebay for them lately.
This sold for $142 plus shipping. What makes this body worth so much?

Well, seeing who bought it, it must be a rare and desirable piece.
I know I'd love to have it.

I was going after some of the old bodies last week and was hell bent on snagging a couple of old Lancers for re-molding seeds and the prices went to the same kind of price is no object person, a Ferrari went for like $169 or so. As collectables I would not think they were worth that but as for making molds from they went cheap. Crazy times.

I think Electric Dreams made this body in the past. A Russkit Eagle F1 2-piece body sold last week, I'd like to have a couple if someone makes them!

Saw that Russkit Eagle, simply beautiful bodyshell and stupid prices as already mentioned on this latest batch of listings
ED has pulled quite a few nice bodies but alot has disappeared from the site. Loved to of gotten that Riggen? Ford Mk4 low swoopy shell but that was never restocked/pulled.
Didn't they do a Chaparral 2D?

If it's the Lancer P4 your after he's been doing it for quite some time, he also does the two part Russkit Eagle F1.

Is Victor still pulling bodies or has he finally retired? Anyone approach him to buy the molds?

The Pactra Lola Body was used on the Champion RTR I believe Phillipe said they used this body and the Lancer one.

The Pactra Lola went for too much money because I wanted it!
I guess someone else wanted it more than I did!
