That body would work, it came with the RTR blue chassis GT's while the other one came with the FT versions

It will work, just beware that the blue chassis trucks are longer then tub trucks.

That body is a early tub chassis body and will not fit unless you do the early rear shock tower swap. The 6134 and the f150 bodies will both fit with no modification. Your truck appears to be either the "rtr plus" or "team built" version, which both originally came with the proline Chevy Silverado body.

No, that's the gt2 interceptor body. That body can work with some minor mods. This is the original. Was also available from associated in blue, and from proline unpainted. Unfortunately none of the original gt bodies are being made anymore (unless you count the tower hobbies ST15), and are not easy to find.

Yes, that's the original gt body being resold by tower. That's also for the early narrow shock tower setup. Also, after looking at the gt2 body again, it looks like you would need to do the shock tower swap to run that one too.

There is also a guy on eBay selling painted crowd pleazer bodies that fit your truck. Look up the seller dsloomer and or search RC10GT body, It should be one of the top results. Don't search crowd pleazer, he doesn't list the name, I think because they are repops, but that's what they are.
