is it my ignorance on schuny or is that not an original shell? It looks very 'cab-forward' for them: almost like a yok' MX-4

I think it's a Parma shell 
Nice work Jeroen, as usual!

That is the first time I have ever seen that particular shell look good, it suits the instruction art well, very nice work Sir

Yes indeed , it is a parma shell.
I never liked these shells , but i could buy this one allready painted from Chiprandall (member over here).
At such a great price , i could not resist.
And it turned out great with the Procat boxart paintjob.

Nice Schuie Jeroen, all your projects are top. The shell is a Parma "Schumacher Cat Shell" part #10271
Used to be called the Parma "Fat Cat" shell when I was young. This is why.....
Looking Ok.....
Suddenly gained 30lbs & bingo! Big fat lump!
To be fair mine hasn't got a great paint job - Jeroen's looks fantastic and the paint scheme really suits this style of shell. I like the shape in a weird way. It just kind of works for me.

Hi 8rad, I think they're Fastrax wheels, distributed in the UK by CML. Yes they are 2.2"
Jeroen - my shell looks rather used now compared to the nice shiney new condition in your photo. I bought it off a guy called Luke. Is your photo from a magazine?
