Huh, I've never seen one before. I assume that's the body that came in the kit? It's the standard issue puller body of the time period. I think they were made by Parma but can't remember for sure. There was a Chevy and Ford one. I imagine they contracted Parma to make a bunch to include with it to save them from having to create their own. Really neat kit!

You were right bud Parma is the maker of these bodies, just sent them an email hoping they have some old stock or the MOLD itself.......................................

I'm really glad to see that Parma still has the mold, and will produce them for you if you apparently buy in bulk. They've always been a hot item which begs the question of why doesn't Parma just sell them normally? They'd sell like crazy! I just went to their site, and they're still selling some older truck bodies individually that could be considered less desirable. Really odd...

I don't know who made them, but a couple of years ago I had a stretched Dodge A100 body in my possession. It came on a 2wd carpet puller from 93/94. I currently have the Chevy version that came on a sportsman puller that's awaiting restoration. I'd be interested in getting one or two new ones myself. If you can PM me the person's email address as well that has them, I'd appreciate it. :)
