Tom Cat fitted MID
I received a couple of repro bodies the other day, including a Parma Tom Cat.
It´s meant for a Lazer or at least a LWB MID.
After a thoughtfull shave and some paint, this is the final result.

Re: Tom Cat fitted MID
That's a good-looking body...clean, smooth lines, not overly busy. I'll be choosing a body for a Mid project coming up and I haven't decided what to use yet. For some reason, I like this one, but it'd be nice to see a painted, mounted one...

Exactly, I would want to choose something a bit different for this build. Box-art's not my thing.DennisM wrote:wydraz -
The one Coleacanth links to, is a JG (John Gudvangen) Optima body, and not the exact same as the stock Mid body.

Re: Tom Cat fitted MID
This looks to be an original JG SWB body:
