Default Bodies

Where can I find different bodies for my e-maxx? I have seen some that are the 1972 Chevy truck style. Any clues?

Thanks

You have to be a talneted driver, as in not land on your roof a lot Cause the 50's chevy I got from parma was pretty thin lexan. It should be fine depending on how much weight you have on your crawler.

I'd like to find a second generation Toyota x-cab for mine. I'd like to paint it just like my 1.1 scale Toyota crawler.

This is another newbie question that has nothing to do with my original, but how do I tell that the E-maxx I just bought is the Wide-maxx or the wider version?

Same here!

Kyosho made a truck named "Big Brute" that had a regular cab 2nd Gen Toy body. That's been years ago, like late 80's. I've searched the web and found the part number but haven't been able to locate the body kit. It was Lexan with a bolt-on chrome grill and bumpers. There was a used Brute on Ebay last week but the body was trashed.
EDIT: This is a Brute body on a Clod.... click HERE

I settled for the next best thing..... just bought a new Proline cruiser body off Ebay. ;)
