1/8 Scale Bodies

Post by pituk »

Went on a trip to the hobby shop to find a body for my clodbuster and saw these sitting on the counter . Yes , I know they wont fit on the clod :D but they were marked $5 plus an additional 70% off . Being an F1 fan and cheap , I couldnt pass them up at $1.50 each even though I have no idea what they go on . One is marked Associated Wolf F1 , the other Renault and Parma on the 1/10 . Any information about them and the corresponding car they would go with is much appreciated , thanks .

I have an Associated catalog from 1979 that shows the Wolf F1 is part # 2116 L (for Lexan) and the cars that it would fit would be an RC 1A (for Indy Car or F1 body) but probably would also fit an RC 2, RC 100 and RC 200. In other words a very early 1/8 body. There were 1/8 classes for either F1 or Indy style cars in the early years of 1/8th scale racing and then a separate Can Am style body class which later became the only class run.
I don't know anything about the other bodies but I'm sure they are just Parma's version of a body for the same type of car. Great price I might add.
