ps. hes trying to take the body out of the deal and give me a dodge sedan body cuz this one wont fit in the box.

[Asso_man!]

tell him to buy a larger box then... is yhis a Nitro DS? cool car for sure, especially the body

[highwayracer]

tell him that you wanted the car but the body is why you purchased his car vs. the other 10 cars that were being up for auction at the time.

I don't he's trying to pull a "bait and switch" on you...he's just lazy to find a box that fits everything.

regards,
highwayracer

1/10 Associated Nissan GTP PN: 6171 (made for the 10L)

[mrlexan]

Well, that might not be 100% accurate. After looking at it closer, it might be from another manufacturer. I know that Bolink made one and I am sure there were a couple of others. I would have to find one my Bolink bodies to be 100% sure. Regardless, it is a Nissan GTP. Here is pic of the real deal at a Daytona HSR race (taken by myself ):

If I recall the only GTP type bodies that fit the DS were the narrower 210mm "superspeedway" type. I'll agree it's a Nissan, but a little too plain for an AE body. Aren't the normal 10L type 235mm wide?

And Jay, I watched that car race at Mid-Ohio long before it was considered "historic".

[mrlexan]

I don't know the dimesions, but the AE GTP has a V type rear wing where the ends tapered in. Also, it only had one large scoop on the drivers side (like the one in the real photo).
