Default What body is this?

Recently, i have been looking into a new body. i found this body on the traxxas fourms (cooleocool) and loved it. at first glance i thought it was a old pro-line body but after reading on, i found it was some Parma. i checked there site and cant find any that look like it. thought maby some people here could help.

these pictures are from traxxas.com and were posted by cooleocool. thanks for the help!

If the VXL ESC is getting in the way then you might want to look into getting an SUV body.

well, i was going to get a hummer h2 because i heard it would go over it easy and i could lower it. problem is, i don't really like the looks of the h2. i am just looking for something durable that will last a long time. and i wouldn't exactly mind it looking nice[8D]

All bodies will crack and wear its just that some do this process faster than others because of the layout and thickness of the body.
