Default Coolest Body Ever???

The body looks super cool.....but what pain in the ***. No paint and peel!

I was also surprised at how small the Parma Honcho is. You'd have to run a 10 or 11 inch wheel base to make it scale. Still cool though!

Anyone else have one?

I remember that body. I Used it on my BlackFoot in the 80's! Looks good on the super! I bet it would be sweet on a 2.2!

Remember the Honcho's ad campaign?

Jeep Honcho: Mucho Macho!

Looks good, but tiny

But still too small.

We are spoiled with the new bodies....with their paint and peel outter covering.....window masking, nice stickers/decals, thick lexan, more correct proportions, etc.

I remember.

I posted up about this body a couple months ago. Some cool guy finally contacted me about this one! Thanks BD.

I had one when I was a kid and then never saw them again for the past 25 years.

It was in the bed room getting warm.
I took it in the kitchen and used it in my coffee.
There wasn't much left though.
