Just wondered if anyone did a retro RC10 style shell for the B4??

I'm sure I saw bugle boy make one but just been on his website and can't see it, maybe I'm going mad! Lol

I've seen a few guys do them and they look really cool! I think I saw them in the tech forum on here under one of the whats old is new. You could also check the paint forum. I don't remember for sure. Just browse around, you'll find em!

I do have a retro B4 shell (not on the website at the moment) but it's more of a B2 style than RC10. I am tempted to make a protech style one even if hardly anyone wants to buy it (because not forward cab :lol:) just because it's something I'd want to run.

A Protech style for the B4 would be killer! Any pics of the other body you mentioned?

Here it is, have the same one with or without a scoop. Scoop is so big I could fit a Mamba Max pro in there with fan. Have been modifying the moulds slightly so they'd work with the +8 but haven't got around to finishing them yet.

That looks great. May need to get one of them from you when you make the next batch.

yeah, if that is predominantly a B2 body and fits a B2, count me in on a scoopless one!

Me too. I'll take one with and without a scoop when you tweak for the +8.

Also interested in several if you ever do a Protech type.

None of it is the same as a B2 shell, will only fit the B4. I've been meaning to try to make a B2 shell mould off a good used shell i've got because I need new shells for my B2 aswell.

Not a vintage body, but it has a vintage look.
