I think there is a "gash" in that theory.

I think your theory is "dripping" with sarcasm.

Not for sale.....That would make this a "feeler" thread.

If he does decide to sell them, he will get on here and become a vendor.

Never thought of that but yes, I think it would too.

Looks better than a Warthog! Even though it is small, it is more realistic looking than some of the 1/24 scale crawler bodies.

I like it. I would like to see a version of it with a more rounded top though instead of flat. Maybe similar to the roof contour of a baja bug body.

Going to try to get him to round the top some so it will try to roll onto its side.

If the top were rounded a little (maybe not too much to ruin the look) I think this would be the best body I have seen.

hmm that would make a cool body for a scale "tuber" build...if he decides to make them, i would be interested in the thicker materiel...i realise it costs more, but itll stand up to abuse better...

you get these produced and I'll buy one,two, maybe even three
I hate the B-17 body, been looking at other options and i like the looks of this.
the only things i could see it needing is a small curve to the roof line and maybe more definition around the windows.

But shoot me a PM when/if these become available, I'm sure my betty body will be destroyed very soon

i dig the body. i would buy one... i would definitely stick with the thicker 0.60 lexan. and either boat side the bottom or like yukon said, make the sides longer so the owner can bend them in.

Thanks. I am working with him and were going to try to get it the best we can to help with rollovers and to keep the good look that it has now.

I have talked to him and I agree, the .60 is going to be better for us.

Thanks. I got tired of the betty body too.

Agreed. I like the thicker lexan too and I am going to talk to him about making the top a little wider so it will pass on the rules. I want to boat the side too....I love that look.

I am going to try to paint one of them this week. I might send him the other to paint when I get some cash in my account so I can get it shipped to him.
