Hi Ed;

Google is our friend, it brought up the Athearn parts page here:

http://www.athearn.com/Products/Parts/Default.aspx

Most of the bodies seem to be from the old Blue Box models, they well at about 
$12.00 for the body - it appears the cab is a separate part in some cases at 
$2.98 a pair, but maybe one is included with the body.

They had a couple of newer bodies, like the CF-7 which they re-worked from a 
Rail Power Products shell after buying the company. Those sell for $22.98 and 
the cab for $7.98 each...

About the same differential between these later bodies, which might be 
marginally better than the original Blue Box or AM shells, as between the 
finished HO models and typical S models.
