Hard to tell without a measurement. I can think of at least six different length bodies in that design.

The bodies and caps look to have been stripped of anodizing. That doesn't look like the newer, bright silver bodies.

They almost look like early version of Traxxas big bores with the lighter hardcoat color? TRX-3 shocks? Just a guess.
Hope you're doin' something fun.

The caps are throwing me off. My AE caps aren't shaped like that, neither are any of the aluminum Traxxas caps that I've seen. The shape looks a lot like a plastic Traxxas cap.

It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

I agree, they are close to AE with the hard coating... would never have thought TRX-3, but it appears to be spot on!

Thanks!
