Hey everyone.
Would anyone by chance have an old catalogue for the Parma range of bodyshells back in the day? I remember getting a poster in an RCCA mag in the early 90's.
Any era would be good (late 80s for kyoshos, RC10's, JRX2's etc, early 90's for Pro SE's, Rc10's etc)
Thanks,
Jim

Hey mate,
Yeah, nice find! I just need some scans or something with part numbers etc. Mag articles etc would be fine. I know from time to time RCCA ran mags with the catalogues run inside basically, maybe someone has something?
Some of the shells on that poster look like what I'm after, but can't see well enough from the pic..

Hmmm, funny thing. I called Parma today and talked to Steve Koepp. They have all of their original molds minus I think one, he said. Minimum order of 25 and they will dig that old mold back out of storage. Anybody have a pic of any of the losi bodies they used to make?
I know they had one called the Impulse for the JRXpro SE...

If anyone else is interested, I would order at least 3 "Stinger" bodies for the Hornet/Grasshopper. I think there would be a market for the "Wells Coyote" Hotshot body as well.
bgniles- I'm not sure if you're over at TC as well, but there could be some interest in Parma bodies there too.

I can set up an order if you all want. I have a really good relationship with Mark and Steve.
