B4 body on B5

Quote

Post by RichieRich » Fri Aug 07, 2015 4:35 pm

Does anyone know if a B4 body will fit or mostly fit a B5? I really don't like the bug look of the B5 and really most of the new body trends.

I do like that B44 conversion. The way it tapers in the front, it makes the it less boxy. It's one of the reasons I like the look of the XX4. I wonder if it works well. It's hard to tell from the rough English.

For those of you who have decided to make a B4-B5 style semi-permanent rear wing, how did you cut the front 3/4 of the body, and how did you mount it?

Also, did you keep using the back 1/4, and how did you mount that?

I have a rear shock tower...

This is what I have currently, also a late model style sing mount. Can't remember what car it'd from, I want to say B4 though. Note the ginormous holes needed to get the body off around the wing mounts.

Here's what I was to install. Mmmmm,...

Nothing to do during the last holiday (Hari Raya)
So I decided to remove an old paint in one body shell.

If you guys have stripped a body and have the hazed windows, try spraying them with a clear coat. In most cases, that will make the windows clear again.

Got a pair of the new bodies today.

Next to Cadillac era body.

It's not as sleek as the old style.

The front window profile isn't the same.

Wing and window masks.

Not a huge fan of the new design, sorry to say. I'll cut it out and...

The one you are calling a Cadillac is actually a Viper body, completely different and two generations newer than the original Protech. The Cadillac era could have been a Protech, Protech II or Viper but the Protech II and Viper were on CE and Team...

What is this?

Last post

The first body looks a bit toy like but the paint job in the one in the link RichieRich posted is ace.

It doesn't even look like the same body :shock: I love those Time Tunnel bodies...simple, but yet proper.
