Default Vintage 1:8 Serpent 962 Body Questions

I am trying to re-live some of my Vintage days and need some help.

Can any one recall that there was another Porsche 962 Body prior to the 1754 MS EV2 from Serpent that had a Higher Tail / Spoiler? I seem to recall there was one but not sure as I can only recall the 1754 PN from memory. I know there was a 962 C as well, but do not believe it was a Serpent body.

Can any fellow old timers chime in. -

Thanks

Thanks guys, I am going to have to dig through some more photos to see if I can determine which body it was that I had back then.

Anybody know anything about the "sarik" 962? I saw it in the bay, seems to have a lot of small details, such as tow hook location, door sills, etc. I do not think it's a "high tail" though.

Default Porsche Bodies

I'll be talking with local bodyshell manufacturer tomorrow at club day. I'll ask if he still has some Porsche bodies available.
On different note we just completed major stocktake & we have heap of spares available for Serpent 950, 960, 966, Vector & even 2WD Serpent 835 cars. Let me know parts numbers of items you need & I'll see what we have.

Cheers,
Trev.
