this is a super detailed 1/12 scale body that was used on a nitro car. what's cool is that the windows were cut out than added back to the inside of the body which i have never seen done before. also it was used on a 1/12 scale nitro chassis??? any idea what nitro 1/12 chassis this could have been used on??? and what is this body??? it almost looks like a triumph tr7 but says Chevrolet on the back. also kinda looks like that chevy that jerobee made but it didnt have a hood scoop like this car has.

I don't know what the body is, but if I had to take a wild guess as to what it came off of, I'd say a Cox .049 GTP. Body mount locations look right, and the cutout for the engine looks right too.

Looks like maybe a G-Body Monte Carlo.

Third gen Camaro dirt oval body. Paint job is a replica of the 1986 Helen Rae Daytona 500 car.

An estimated guess is the livery roughly dates the time it was built, narrowing the chassis possibilities slightly, etc.
