Alternate Bodies

Post by losiXXXman »

I had the idea of putting a wild one body onto a grasshopper chassis recently and was curious about ideas that others have tried. On TC I saw a Falcon body on a Bear Hawk/Blitzer chassis that looked good, and read about a Fox bodied Grasshopper (no pics). I know Mr. Ed has done some interesting and good-looking body transplantations as well. Post up any GOOD-LOOKING transplanted body pics you have. I'll start with my recently completed XXcr on a RC10.

I'm haven't done the Wild One yet, but am now considering a replica of the Fox-Hopper. A Hot Shot Hopper with a rear cage would be cool I think as well.

I kind of regret taking this one apart

My hotshot caged and bodied ultima
The body and cage went on another car later and got trimmed more, so no way back unless I get new hotshot body

This is another one I really liked:
