Default suzuki samurai body

Anyone one know where I can get a suzuki samurai body here in the States? I found a site in Japan that sells them but would rather deal with someone on the site or a US dealer.

I just bought one from RPP:

Tamiya Suzuki Jimny SJ30 body set

Technically it's a suzuki SJ30 but it's basically the same as a samurai, think it has a slightly different grill. Here's what it looks like built:

Thanx I didn't know tamiya was making that body. For some reason I can't view the pic. What makes it to big for the mini? I wish I could see the pic.

Does anyone have Wheelbase measurments on this? i have a speedpal samurai, but really don't want to tear that one up and I think this Tamiya may be the ticket.

After I posted the link to the body for some reason I thought you were asking about a mico crawler instead of a mini so I thought it would be too big but then I realized you were asking about the mini. I think Jared86 is correct on the wheelbase @ 6.5" cause I stretched the back half on mine to make it an even 8"

Nice little Jimny. I got the same body sitting here. Was going to build a mud drag rig with it, but ran out of time, parts, and inspiration...
