Default New Proline 13" WB Retro Chevy C-10 Race Truck

https://www.prolineracing.com/bodies...clear-body.asp

1978 Chevy C-10 Stepside Race Truck

Length: 20.5" (521mm)
Width including fenders: 11.5" (292mm)
Height: 6.25" (159mm)
Wheelbase: 13.0" (330mm)

Would work nicely over Axial AR60 OCP or similar-width axles

and using BPC or Xtreme Racing Bomber-skid compatible chassis rails with rear links shortened, or Wraith-skid compatible chassis rails (CBE RC Fab Switchblade, etc)



Example of Chevy K-10 4x4:

I was tempted to do that, but I also like the idea of this sitting on live axles F&R...

I am rewarding myself with a Slash-sized Lexan body for my Xtreme Racing carbon fiber Bomber-skid compatible chassis rails once someone will freakin' give me a job.

Got a new candidate, here.

I was originally going to use the Proline GMC TopKick meant for the HPI Savage XL that I bought ages ago, but it's awfully narrow - which would make it look very monster-truck-ish, and I'm not really into those.

I've got another option that still is my favorite, but it's a secret - for now!

The front fender bulges kinda ruins the step side and square front looks

Check out post #1826 here: https://www.race-dezert.com/forum/th....12323/page-92

or here: 2014 Mint 400 – NORRA Vintage Race Vehicle Display

and this: 1973 - 1980 Chevy Truck/Blazer Fiberglass Drop Center Hood

Proline nailed it as far as I'm concerned. This is definitely on my "want" list, just need to figure out which car to put it on, the Slash would be too easy, the Wraith might be a cooler build, though that body would suck for actual crawling performance. I'll probably pick one up and figure the rest out later.

Sorta, ceptin' the Chebby is a bit more scale-accurate...

(not to detract from that Dodge - looks mean as hell!)

I'm really thinking this is a great way to freshen up my yeti.
Anyone use a 313mm wb body? Is that twin hammers links trick the way to go?
I need to do some homework and find a yeti tt cage/bumper.
...after I finish my son's blazer body and my 3d printed 79 ford.
But I totally want one of these!

*oh yes. Just measured my yeti width and it's 11.75 with the massive axial 2.2 beadlocks. Some 1.9 wagon wheels would easily nuzzle up under this proline body.
