Does the one in that catalog have the "breakable" Rally upper body?(appears to in Brian's picture) or a NR body? Would the 1982 Paramount fall into the time frame of early Rally's vs. later model with reinforced upper body? FWIW: My NR with Rally plates functions pretty well (as limited by nasty old friction levers)
