Body options for my RC10 Worlds

Post by mdutcher »

Hi there.... I am new to the forum, but am not new to RC10 sweetness. I have been an avid RC10 supporter and just love the platform. At any rate, I have since gotten back into a vintage RC10 Worlds and was wondering about body options.

Can I still buy bodies for this buggy? However, are there other options out there where something else has worked for your RC10 where slight modification was needed? I ask because I would love to try something out of the ordinary, if possible.

Thanks!

The "actual" shell for the Worlds car is a RCPS 120 Turbo Mirage and has been discoed for some time, the Protech and Viper still available from AE are perfect fit still, and there are reproductions available via eBay for the Turbo Mirage 8)

That sounds good and thank you for the reply. I will look into those options.

Has anyone though tried to use a different body though like something from a B4 or even a different brand? Just want to see all options available given the experimentation that someone has already tried.

I don't have my vintage worlds in hand just yet, otherwise I would have tried my current B4 body on it.... just anxious to hear what others may have tried.

Is the Protech the original shell for the Edinger gold tub?

AEIOU put an Illuzion from Jconcepts on his buggy (it's his avatar) with good success.

Yup, that is the correct shell

Does anyone know if the RC10 B2 body will fit an unaltered gold tub car?
We are all heading towards old age. Get there slower by bike.
