Great, no I have to decide between that and the parma '34 ford.

I like the details on this body... lights, louvers, huge sunroof, "frame rails" out the front, and the chopped look.

I agree, but it will be cool for scale builds.

Actually they have had this molded for over 1-1/2 yrs. They were suppose to release it then, and they never did. Now I guess they decieded to do it. If its anything like the parts support, then it may take another year!

I think the side windows look better on the Axial then on the Parma.
Even though this body is kind of "brick" the Axial has some better detail and flow.

Why build a rat rod with big power and run itty bitty axles. Run something that'll take serious power.

I don't know how big this one is but the parma one seems tiny on a truck, almost 1/12 scale to me something like 9 3/4-10 wb and narrow, it did fit well on my tc3 backwards though
