Gentlemen,
As Cpt Eddie states, there are NO bodies to be had. Yes, some of the bodies were made in Canada BUT what I understand (?) they were using the CR's Molds, Not their own. Another point and I have yet to investigate it, is that the original "Classic Roadsters, INC, who sold out to "Leisure Industries" NEVER released the molds to CR II!! Leisure industries was making the bodies for Don S under contract and as far as I know, they STILL have/own the moulds. (Leisure Ind's has also filed Bankruptcy.)

Emerson WILL NOT FIT, LoneStar with minor mods did splash the CR original bodies but they too have now filed bankruptcy. What is available is up to investigation?

As far as I know, the only place to get a body at this point is find one left over from someones stock- unlikely to say the least, or to find one that hasn't been built and just sitting in someones garage.

I'm to old to start making bodies, but darn..............
