This was a body created by FESTUS33 on AO. To my knowledge there are only 2 in existence. One that FESTUS33 kept for himself, and one that he sold on AO.
It was machined from the first batch of original AGD Slug bodies(short version). The same shorter slug that the Chord v1 was machined from. This body was machined on a manual machine with compound cuts.
The FESTUS body that was sold on AO has changed many hands over the years. I did get to see this body in person by one of its many owners. I have no idea who the current owner is.
An interesting piece of AGD history...
I saw that body about a week ago. someone just snagged it on ebay.

FESTUS must have sold the one he kept for himself OR someone took the body he sold on AO and modified it. The one I held did not have the teardrops like the one that Diablo is selling.

I remember a thread of festus33's a couple years back. The body that has the scalop's cut into it is the one festus33 did for another magger. So the 2 bodies he did were not identical. :D

I know for a fact the one I held was the one he originally sold on AO, and was not the one he kept for himself. The one I held did not have teardrops, like pictured above.:wthumpup:

I believe you for sure. The body festus kept for himself was traded to stevieD I believe. I can still picture it hangin on a wall in stevieD's for sale thread along side an Xmag. The last person I recall owning festus33's personal body was Sumeryjudgement. I remember to much crap. :smarty:

If I were to purchase the body with teardrops, Rogue, could you make a custom rail that would match the body's likeness to an SFT Shocker?:glare:
