Choosing a Hard Plastic Body

[Tommy R]

Hey y'all,

I'm trying to decide what hard plastic body to use for my upcoming 1.9 scaler build. I'm hoping to see several pictures of various bodies you all have used along with some basic information about them. I'm pretty sure I'll end up with a HiLux, but would love to do something a bit more unique.

So please post up your pics with as much of the following information as you can!"thumbsup"

Body Manufacturer:
Wheelbase:
Overall Length
Where Purchased:
Specific Likes/Dislikes:
What Body Mods Have You Done:

I couldn't find a "database" of this kind of info. so I thought I'd see if we could start one up....

Thanks in advance!
Tommy

This is not my personal area of expertise but I have seen some sick hard bodies on "NewBright" vehicles. in fact I ran across 2 diiferent ones at Walgreens the other day. A F-150 and a Rubicon. Best part is they were both on sale for $19.99. I dont think you can beat that."thumbsup"

Yes, New Bright does make some good bodies.

That thread on scale4x4 was unfortunately less than I'd hoped after going through it. It was filled with fluff and little facts/pics. There were also lots of common bodies that were left out. I wish we had some sort of comprehensive list of hard bodies here on RCC.
