Default Where to get a decent body?

I've been looking around and have decided I want to build a scale truck...but I don't know where to find a decent body. I'd like an old Chevrolet body or [WWII-ish] Dodge power wagon body, but I don't know if anyone makes these...and it has to be a decent size [not 1/25 or whatever]. Any help would be great...and I would settle for even a jeep cherokee or something similar. I just need ideas of where to go to get this stuff...as well as axles [I've read TLT's are good], transmissions, shocks, motors, all that...I'll be kind of bored this summer so I need something to work on! Thanks

Oooh I like that body..might have to invest in one.

Would tlt axles be wide enough for that...or would i need wider?
