Where to get more body info

[es79]

First I'm posting here cause I am new to all this, I realize it might be moved to the body section, just wanted to be on the safe side.

1. Do all 1:10 Scale bodies work with axial RTR?

2a. Am I correct in reading that some are using bodies from Wal-mart, Radio Shack, etc. from cheap R/C vehicles.

2b. How do you know it will work?

3. Where do I find a "hardbody"?

4. Do all 1:10 scale car bodies work? Someone on here had a Subaru(see I did use search, LOL)

5. Styrene? That makes a "hardbody"? So I can make my own!!!?? 'splain that process, start to finish if possible.

6. Can I take the paint off my RTR Original or is that a dumb idea?

7. Chevy S-10, Colorado, Blazer S-10, Trailblazer, Chevy Nomad, Dodge Nitro, Dodge Magnum, Ford Flex, or other SUV types, are they out there?

8. Experience with using Bull-Dog and painting on the outside?(might be another dumb idea).

I think that is all for now, I had a whole list in my head, but I'm kinda tired. Thanks for your help in advance. I am really getting way ahead of myself but my new RTR can't arrive soon enough. I know just by reading the body is the last thing I should be concerned with but I still wanna look b!tc!n' while I'm crawling around.


2 General forum questions/comments.

1. more stickies cause I have searched a lot of things, and there is so much info its hard to weed through to get the "right" answer.

2. I understand why new people can't sell/buy on the forum, but does that have to include not being able just to view the posts in there, to get price examples and see whats out there?
