Know of a body for an SR10?

[@GoFastHobbies]

@robmccoy1279 you can use a MR Kustoms RealDeal body or a Sippel Speed Shop Desperado body on your SR10. You may have to get different body posts. But these bodies will fit.

I have a 10" Mountaineer on mine and it looks amazing 👍

Great Video! Hello, I have a couple of questions I hope you can answer for me, if you will. What type of body mount extenders are you using or what name should I search for? What kind of bumper are you using in the front & where can I find one of those or what are they called? also do they have side pieces that attach to the chassis? And last question, what total diameter wheels& tires are you using, I can't seem to find a proper scale for my RC. I have converted a Slash 2 WD to an LCG and thats fine, but I have a 70 Charger Pro Line Body shell that I'm going to use & it fits well enough based on the wheel base & placement, there just seems to be a lot of over hang of the body & i would like to shore that up some how, I would also like to keep the post from poking out of the rear window too, any advice would be appreciated!! Thanks

@MegaFrankgarcia We are glad you like the video! We have the JB RC Sports Stinger body mount kit for a 2WD slash, www.gofasthobbies.com/products/jb-ts1000 The QuasiSpeed body mount www.gofasthobbies.com/products/qs-4001 should work. The MR Kustoms IceMan latemodel body would be the one you would need for a slash or short course truck www.gofasthobbies.com/products/mrk2001l this body does mount different than the one in this video.

Is the 1/10 scale late models lighter than the 1/10 sprint cars and do they look to scale with each other? I know when you see a real late model next to a sprint car the sprint car is so tiny lol

[@GoFastHobbies]

No they are not “true” to scale cars. They are about the same size in their own 1/10 scale versions. The Latemodel is lighter than the sprint car.
