Question Newbie Question

Hi,
I'm new to RC bodies and could use some of your help.
I'm building a 6x6 truck right now. I plan on putting an Oshkosh M925 body on it.
The question is how do I get this body? Should I make it by myself (if so, how?) or just buy one (if available)

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

First you should do some research to see if there is any body that model. I do not know any on sale, but demand. If you do not find anything you like that you have to make one, to do that you can use polystyrene is the material most used and best work to do what you want.

Good luck with the search.

I chose to go with a self made body. But I still have many questions.. Like how to glue the parts. Are there any available tutorials?

Thanks!
