i was thinking about something. what are the odds of using a 1/10 (modified of course) model car for a shell? like i said, "modified" to have the doors & such closed, fenderwells larged to fit, & body mount holes made.
just curious. . . also, do you think the bodies from other rc cars like the cheap ones found in toy stores that are fully loaded interiors & such would fit 190mm or 200mm cars? just thinking if one could not find something like an ek9 or certain 180sx orspecial body type but could fnd one in the cheap rc brand.
i know most of them are thicker plastic bodies than what we use as shells, so i don't know if that would be a factor.
thanks

thanks for the imput guys. the only thing is, some of those "toys" are really nice bodies, but the stickers & crap they throw on them. . .yuck. i know some are paint, but quite a few i have seen are just decals & can be removed to reveal a perfect body to race with.
