The body Peter Bayer offered (former owner of Contemporary) had full floor pans, foot boxes , trunk and the doors, hood and deck were hinged and fit. The shell offered by FFR is not complete enough to be mounted on a Contemporary frame. The frame is very much like a round tube Mid-states or an Everett-Morrison. I think the simililarity is more than a coincidence. Both Mid-States and Everett-Morrison are a very heavy body. The original bodies from Peter also had a 270 degree wrap on the edges. The new Cobra vendor in Iowa also has a body that fits this frame. I do have his phone number and was going to call him about a lighter composite body for this frame.
