You can drill holes and use body clips, but you wouldn't want to see that on a nice hardbody... so, rig up some rare earth magnets and some small flat peices of steel to hold that body on and it will hold strong and be stealth..
or velcro is another option. but it wears out after awhile.

I actually fabbed some brackets up and just reused the factory mounts that are molded on the body.

I also fabbed some brackets up and reused the factory mounts on the body. It works like a charm, atleast with the SCX10 chassis.

Here's the temporary mounts I made during the build. Now I use short M3 bolts which I fixed with a thin M3 nut. So the bolts are always in place and stick out a few millimeters which makes the body possible to snap-on i.e. it is not neccessary to fix the body using nuts as in these photos. It's a good way to mount the body because it's fast to mount or take off and the body will not come off even if you roll the car.
