Re: Can someone identify this truck shell please?
i dont know who makes it, but it looks like an RC10GT body with the rear shock tower risers placed so far back. maybe a Losi GTX or NXT also?

Re: Can someone identify this truck shell please?
Well, as an example, here's a picture of it on my RC10T (that I forgot I had!
)...
You can see that, although the shock towers are sort of in the right place (to fit the bulges), the body mounts are waaaay off.
I've also done a comparison shot with what I *guess* is a proper RC10T shell......
If it helps, the front body post holes are marked in the shell about a half inch in front of the base of the windscreen (two holes), and the rear mount is a large-ish slot right at the middle rear of the bodyshell...

Re: Can someone identify this truck shell please?
I have a lot of Frewers, and they're generally a better lexan, and better 'pulled'. Also, I don't think I've ever seen a Frewer with a label on it like that one before......templeofspeed wrote:Possibly a Frewer body for the GT?
Keep going though..... all ideas help!

Re: Can someone identify this truck shell please?
how wide are the front body holes spaced? how big is the body mount slot in the rear?
2 front posts and a single center mount in the rear makes me think of traxxas nitro trucks like the nitro sport and rustler.

Re: Can someone identify this truck shell please?
Mate, that's not a bad guesstimate..... I've attached a pic compared to a Rustler body I have. Front mounts match up perfectly, but the rear mount is nowhere near. I found another smaller slotted mount (shock mount style) in the middle of the bed, but it doesn't quite line up with the Rustler rear mount..... but we're getting closer!aconsola wrote:how wide are the front body holes spaced? how big is the body mount slot in the rear?

traxxas nitro hawk? Same front body mount, but the rear has a flat plate for a shock tower so the body hole should be a slot vs the circle hole for the plastic molded shock tower on the rustler.
Maybe somebody here has one and can measure the distance for you?

Re: Can someone identify this truck shell please?
hello All,
That's the body for the Flying Point Enterprise PIZAZZ - TK1. It shares many parts with the nitro hawk. I scanned the picture a few months ago, but I can't seem to find the catalog that has the body pictured.
More information on that truck can be found here:
