I did use the Tamiya body. I fits pretty well, but if you narrow the front you have mod the chassis a little.

Like the look of your wraith, does the hilux body fit with no further modification, besides hacking off the roof and windows

The stock body will pretty much fit right on with a very little work. But since mine is pinched in the front I had to mod the cage some. I also dovetail the rear to fit the contour of the cage.

If you look at the other pages you can see the mods.

If I may add my opinion, I think it looked much better without the bedsides because it had a good truggy look going. Or I think you could leave the bed on and shorten the rear upper fastback supports so that they attach just behind the upper shock mounts where that support tube curves out to meet the outer chassis tube. I think that would make the truck bed look more fitting with the rest of the truck. Right now it kinda looks like a Camaro with truck bedsides.

Whoa I almost forgot about this one! Came out sweet! That hood looks mean. While I do agree with the comment about the rear cage mod, it looks good as is. I did mine the aforementioned way for free using spare parts.

Scott - I've got my Tamiya Hilux front on order - I'm gonna need some assistance with getting it mounted to my Wraith! You won't be the only SE VA local rocking a Wralux for very long!
