Default Pro line known to re-release bodies?

I'd really like a pro line tracker body.

Do they ever re release discontinued bodies?

Is it just my mobile or is their site hard to navigate?

The body you are looking for is called the Desender (Suzuki SideKick).

I saw them once on their site as Discontinued..
But maybe available again..
Can't find it now tho..

Im going to hit my LHS today.. They have some old dusty pro line bodies buried I'm sure.

I really want one of the old Dodge Power Wagon bodies they used to make. I kick myself for never picking one up.

International Scout non-CGR. I think they called it the Ambush.

Even if they re-released some of these bodies in limited quantity for $100 a pop they would sell.

Although from some other genius moves I've seen PL make, I wouldn't count on anything.

Most of the problem is loss of licensing to make them.

Don't think they ever had them. Guessing that's why?

Dale Epp from Protoform (Proline's onroad division) was explaining on another forum that years back they would just make replica bodies without bothering to get licenses because the RC industry was so small. They still have molds for replica cars that they wish they could sell again but the environment of licensing now makes most rereleases not worth the hassle.
