1/12 Body ID

Post by Seabass »

Who can ID this body? I have been looking for one of these for the longest time but I have no idea what i am looking for. I was hoping it would offered by the likes of TBG but I can't make out the dtails on his bodies cause the photographs don't show detail.

Looks more like an Andy´s Lotec to me. I had the 1/10 version and this one is looking the same.

If you're talking about Protoform's P-35 body, that's not it. The P-35's vent on top of the cab is an outtie not an innie. ;)

Also I think that's a Porsche not a Nissan.


My vote is it's a Parma Porsche Group C.

The two vents on the top look just like my bolink Porsche 962, but mine is a short version so the rear is different. I will take pics in a bit.

Bolink Porsche could definitely be it too. If it is you can still get the bodies new from Windtunnel RC:

Well, the doors/windows are different....and I know it's a short version.....but the vents, the round fuel filler hole instead of oval, etc. hmm.

Here's the BL 962 body from the old BL catalog in the scans archive....it's the same Wind Tunnel still sells. Not the body Seabass is looking for.

I still think it's the Parma.

The Parma has NACA ducts on the top side by the driver, and the rear sunken area above the tires looks a bit off too

If it wasn't for the windows I'd say that has to be it. Maybe jake can post better pics, maybe the masking job is at fault.

Lots of good inputs here, I appreciate the responses.

Doing some quick searching though may force me to the windtunnel version though. Nothing out there on the searches except for a Tamiya body and the windtunnel version, both which are really close.

Sorry the pic came from eBay.
