Does anyone know where I can get a Kramer Pacer Special body? The guitar looks very similar to this
pacerspecial.jpg
I want to restore my dads old guitar for his birthday. the body is all busted up, the neck pocket is all worn out, and the bolts are striped out. I see alot of the pacers with slanted pickups and neck pickups, but none like that photo. If my last resort is to get one made, who should I turn to for that?
Thanks all!

Are you saying the neck bolts are stripped? That's an easy fix. Any decent luthier can fix the issues you've described and cheaper than the price of a new body plus paint. Which won't be the same as the original body. Either way I'm sure your Dad will be psyched. But based on nostalgia alone I'd try to keep the old body.
 
That is the body kramer used for ed's 5150.
Many think it was a beretta body but it was a special with one knob.
