What about a 6r4, or a mini montcarlo or maby a lancia delta intergrali
Ritchie - September 4, 2008 04:40 PM (GMT)
I've never seen a 6R4 shell, if anyone made one, I'd have one. :D
Be good if you could find a Carson Quattro S1 shell :drool: :drool:
alans_savage - September 4, 2008 05:08 PM (GMT)

l0p3d0g - September 4, 2008 05:35 PM (GMT)

minivtec - September 5, 2008 06:47 AM (GMT)
well i did find this site for shells
body shellsits a shame they are so wide ;)
monty - September 5, 2008 07:27 AM (GMT)
they are wide BUT it means you can fit them straight onto a 1/10 buggy (most of them work) and actually use it off road as much as it pains me to admit it ta02's just dont cut the mustard off road as a rally car :(
Ritchie - September 5, 2008 10:53 AM (GMT)
Good point Monty. Shame they don't do a 200mm version too, surely it should be a fairly easy modification to their mold...
By the way I've just emailed Frewer about the 6R4 shell, I'll let you know if I have any luck. I think I'm gonna stop reading your posts Tim! :joker:
purpletimbo - September 5, 2008 11:07 AM (GMT)

Ritchie - September 5, 2008 12:08 PM (GMT)

Im gunna be different and say Skoda Octavia or Fabia WRC. Carson made the Octavia and Tamiya did a limited run of the Fabia I believe, although very rare!! Last one I saw was on German ebay on a TT01.

Tamiya Celica GT4 or Corolla WRC?
I got a reply from Frewer, the 6R4 shell is still available, USD $44! I've asked for width and wheelbase measurements :D
Jedi Master - September 7, 2008 01:53 PM (GMT)
Thats pretty reasonable!! :clap:
Lets just hope it don't cost the same for the shipping!! :lol:
:thumbs_up:
minivtec - September 7, 2008 01:57 PM (GMT)
