Parma/Kamtec Body for Yokomo

Post by **PBR Allstar** » Thu May 24, 2007 12:47 pm

Has Anyone mounted up the kamtec parma body on an 870? I know some people mentioned it and talked a bit about it, but I'm looking for some feedback before I order one.

thanks,
ford.

I have an original Parma still in the bag, haven't gotten around to mounting it up yet. Sorry that does not help you.

So Jay, there was a thread awhile back, with plenty of talk about getting some bodies going (hint hint!) how's the move going? Did you get that pm I sent you a week or so ago?

Still in the plans, but we are living in a 1000 sq ft apartment (only been here a week) and I am not sure that is the right place for a project like that. I really need a house to take something like that on.... I need to sell my other house before I can get another. We'll see what happens, it would be much easier if I could find a source for pulling bodies. Seeing that this is an aerospace heavy area, I am hoping someone around here has that capability.

I will read over my PMs again.

Thanks Jay, I would really like some pointers on making a good plug to potentially pull bodies from. Mostly so we can potentially preserve some of the designs for possible future use. I have a couple right now that I really don't want to use, but I really want to use,,, I'm sure you know how that goes.

thanks,
ford.

I've been waiting for a while to get my YZ 870C finished, I sent the copy of the Parma body to Keith to be copied and I got an extra body back in return. I have just tried the body against my car and the pictures are below. I think I have initially lined up the holes slightly wrong and so the undertray is a little closer to one wheel than the other. Small problem to be rectified.

I don't see any pics...?

My pics were too big to put in so had to save them again. I hope this shows the fitting properly

Looks pretty good from here! How would you say the fit is? are you happy with it?
