Need Help Identifying a 10T Body

I saw this body on a 10t on Ebay a while ago and missed out on buying it. Now I'm spending 3 times more trying to replicate it. I like this body and was hoping someone could help Id'ing it. Maybe even someone has one available for sale or trade. Also, never posted with a picture before so hopefully this will work. Thanks.

Dahm's. I think it's a Slammer XL.

That doesn't even pretend to look like it fits well :?

Dahm's for sure. I think it's one of the Slammer versions for the 8th scale trucks (T-Maxx, Savage, etc.), hence the oversized, funky fit.

Those Dahm's bodies for the 10T are great imo, and the Commando was the only body I ran back when I raced my 10T. The truck always seemed to roll back over onto its wheels better with those bodies. :oops: :lol:

FYI - here's a pic of an eBay-find 10T Team resto that came with a Dahm's Commando in perfect shape. Unfortunately, it was finished with an awful paint job, as you can see. I plan to strip it and repaint eventually. Anyway, this should give you a little bit better idea of how they normally fit the 10T.

Ok thanks aeiou, that explains the overhang. I never even thought about it being oversized and maybe that's just what I liked about it. I don't particular care for the wheels being on the front corners of the AE bodies and this kind of looks more realistic at least to me. Others may not like it but that's ok . I wonder if there are any out there, guess I'm going to have to go back to the LHS warehouse and check out all the old bodies. I know there are some Dahm's but not sure if any are trucks.
