| That's cool that you are going to make them but if you do PLEASE make sure you keep in mind a good wheel base for a scaler (10.5"-12") and that a 4.25" 1.9 tire will fit perfectly not only in the opening but in the width of the body  |

| Agree on the Xj ! We could use another Comp body with a rounded roof for better rollovers |

| how about an AMC M422A1 Mighty Mite? 76" wheelbase as far as I remember, track width of a mini cooper, and they look really neat. shouldn't be that hard to make one that looks like it has a ragtop, or do a semi-scale interior that is held onto the body with servo tape re-inforced with button-head screws (hey, it's a military rig, button head screws would be relatively scale!). should be pretty simple to do. just make it so that the driver from a wild willy would be scale in it and include one of those with each body |

| To be honest the XJ will bring in some money quick...so it might be a best first choice to help bring in revenues. I'd personally love to see simple trucks with a freaking drop bed! |

| 4runner , I have had people offer me 150-200$ for my *used* ones, and i paid 200$ for this NIB one.  also an 85 Toyota pick up body would be cool Jeep Js are also high in demand  But they would need to be in a 1/8 to 1/10 scale...this one I have is is closer to 12th scale Last edited by 1BadJeepBruiser; 04-29-2008 at 04:30 PM. |

| xj - so like Stefans, just bigger and from lexan? I had a look around and founnd these two threads: 1985/86 Toyota Bodies 4runner or truck? New body petition. Please read and vote looks like a lot of support for a j-10. keep up the suggestions, I guess it would make sense to make a poll here once its clear what we're chosing from? |
