RJ Speed makes a body that looks like your second pic.

EDIT: There's also this beauty (one of my favorites) that was done with a Kyosho Sideways body.

It's up for sale on eBay now.

Took me a bit to find it, but this thread may interest you. This is one of the many projects I plan to steal... I mean imitate one day. "Imitation is the most sincere form of plagiarism." -Alf :mrgreen:
