Proline makes quite a few bodies, any 1/10th scale will fit. RC bodies are pretty universal as far as what crawler they will fit as long as the scale is right.

Something you have to watch is the Wheelbase of the body, the redcat rs10 has a wheelbase of 12.5. I had a hpi bronco body on my redcat and liked it very well. Good luck cant wait to see pics

I had the HPI bronco as well, but it had to sit really high to avoid hitting the tires, and it just looked funny.

The body could look like a real truck or a 1:1 rig, but with the RS10 set up as a 2.2 comp style crawler, you'll have to mount the body kinda high to prevent any rubbing, or cut the body to prevent the tire rub. This would raise the center of gravity, could make the rig prone to tipping over, etc... It could look cool, but wouldn't look nearly as good as some of the 1.9 or 2.2 scale rigs that have scale chassis and proper setups.

I don't know where in SL you are, but Canyon Hobbies is a pretty good place to get a good price on RC stuff. I would call with the part# you want before you drive down to get it, sometimes their stock isn't reflected correctly on their website. They are the same company as RC planet so their prices are pretty good.
