Re: What RC10 shell is this?
hummm
on secound looking (fished out the un painted viper body i have here)
your right, the windows are different.
so i checked it against my b2 body, nope, not that
b3 ? nope
b4 ? nope
b4 crowd pleaser ? nope
b4 vortex ? nope
b4 jconcepts ? nope
so i came to two conclusions
1. i have too many unpainted bodys
2. i have no idea what the body is sorry

Cats,
That is a RCPS Turbo Mirage Body. Part # C120.
The original versions of this shell did not come with and ESC scoop on the left hand side. They were introduced on latter versions. I have one unpainted if you need photos.

Re: What RC10 shell is this?
I may be wrong Dual, but according to me the Turbo Mirage had a scoop while the Mirage hasn't, 2 bodies, 2 names...

You are wrong on this one.I may be wrong Dual, but according to me the Turbo Mirage had a scoop while the Mirage hasn't, 2 bodies, 2 names...
The original Turbo Mirage (not Mirage) bodies did not come with scoop. They were introduced on th bodies later on ala Worlds Car.
The Mirage was a different looking shell. More boxed shape.
Let me know if you would like some photos of the Turbo Mirage bodies with and without the ESC scoop.
