I'm working on a mid motor RC10 rerelease, but i need to choose a body. I'd like to try to use a modern looking body (even if it is an ugly cab forward design) because it would fit the profile of my chassis better.
Does anybody know of any modern buggies that have a similar width chassis plate that might have a body that fits the RC10? I just checked a B6 body, and it is way too narrow, by about 20mm.

Re: Modern Body, Vintage Buggy?
Most modern chassis have that narrow size like the b6... Probably the B4 was the last one, really, and even then I'm not even sure.
How about going for one of the modern JC reinterpretations of the RC10 instead?

The jconcepts detonators do have a nice cab shape that works well with a mid motor tub. They are rather narrow up front to fit to the tub closely.
