Bigfoot Aerostar body?

I have been looking for one of these for a while with no luck. On my original lunchbox way back in the day I destroyed the hard body. The replacement body kit was rather expensive(for a 13~ish y.o.) so I got one of the lexan Aerostar bodies and painted it in the bigfoot colors. The aerostar body also took its share of thrashing and had lots of reinforcements up and down the sides to repair torn mounting holes. I traded it off at some point and would love to get another.
Does anyone know who made this body? Part#?
I'd love to see some pics if there are any built up out there.
It's a shot in the dark I guess, but if anyone has one available for trade let me know.

nobody has been able to order any bodies from them in quite a while, unfortunately.
I have not tried myself, but others on the board have been unsuccessful at getting ahold of anybody at vansinvent.

That's the one. Very nice. Is the part # 10314? Maybe it is my monitor, but I have a hard time making it out clearly.
I've emailed parma to see if they still have the mold. I know that a few years before the lunchbox was re-released we were able to get them to do a short run of the Lunchbox replacement bodies. I think it was set up through RCMT. Hopefully they can do this again.
Thanks!
