I know I’m in the minority (at least on this site) and possibly biased since I race one every week but the JC Finnisher is my favorite modern buggy body.

Bump alert! I saw it was GreenHell's bday and I couldn't remember if he was the guy that posted all of those scale garage photos in his basement all those years ago so I searched his posts. I got lazy pretty quick and never found out, but did run across this thread. All things considered, I still think The Hornet is way up there! 8)

Wait, it was the guy who posted the mini BMX bikes with the Kung-Fu grip G.I. Joe riding them in scale. he had some really classically painted RC10 bodies too. Hopefully someone knows who I am talking about... :oops: :lol:

Always loved the look of the original Hotshot. But also dug the Tomahawk!

Besides some of the bodies already mentioned, I've always been a fan of the Raider Pro body. It even has a functional air scoop for the motor molded in.

Can’t believe no one has mentioned the Protech body yet. I think this will always be my favorite Associated body.

A personal favorite of mine. The car underneath was garbage but I always loved the look of this one. I just picked one up, nib but lacking the box.
