Bodies

Has anyone found a different body for this truck yet? I would like a camaro or trans am body if possible. I found a 200mm body but not sure where they are measuring axel to axel or bumper to bumper. This is my first r/c car and just bored with the truck body. Also can you convert this truck to a merv? and would you know what parts are needed? Thank you

I'm going to assume when you say truck that you have a kyle b version? There is a camaro body on ebay, but it doesnt come with any decals or anything. Also look at mcallister racing, i know they have some bodies that fit. there is also the proline focus, and the protoform tornado, check out the gallery for pics of them. and you can always get a different traxxas body for it (mustang, rally, fiesta) and paint it to your liking.
Yes It can be converted to a merv, there are some threads on how-to and what parts are needed just search rally to merv conversion.

Here are pictures of the Focus and Tornado bodies.

The Camaro body on e-bay is from Team Blue Groove and is a replica of the Monster Energy, West Coast Customs limited edition Camaro Rally. As Skitlerz said, you have to cut your own window masks so that can be a pain. Otherwise I've found TBG bodes to be of OK Quality. Not great, but not terrible.

TBG is no longer around, any where else to find bodies?

any ideas to find bodies already panted ?

eBay... that is about it.

TBG is still around. They have vintage bodies for sale on e-bay right now. But in terms of painted bodies, you'll be limited to traxxas bodies sold on e-bay or custom bodies guys have painted on e-bay. And you'll be paying TOP dollar for them. For about $25 you can buy a clear rally, fiesta, focus or Tornado body and for $5 you can buy a can of paint. Most bodies on e-bay sell for $40 or more plus shipping.

i just saw they returned! epic!

wow those painted shells look great
