WtF is an HPI "Brain"?
Anyway, About the body... In my opinion you are going to need to measure the body, find out what the exact measurements are all around (Wheelbase, Lenghth, Width all that stuff) and then go to a good hobby website and find a NIP one that will fit.
Coming ehre and asking for abody that will fit is like asking if the new DOOM will run on your computer. We won't be able to help you unless you give us some specifics.
Most of the people with bodies here on RCNT custom paint thier own bodies, so even if you were to find someone to sell you one that fits you might want to go with a handpainted one first. I will give you a fun aspect in the hobby and you will know for sure3 witch body fits and witch ones don't.

I didn't even know HPI made Recievers...
Methinks whoever told you it's an HPI was mistaken. The mill MIGHT be something that comes on an HPI, but I can't see it. If it is an HPI I sugest looking on the Proline or HPI site for a body because that is the only way you are going to find one. You need to know the measurements before just trying to grab any body.
Off note... the front body posts are kinda cute lol. Better hope you don't ever hit anything, cause if you do those will be the first to go. I doubt they would even survive fitting a body onto them. You might want to see if you can't locate the manufacturer of the thing and see if they sell a replacement or relocated version of the posts...

Tweak that engine is a HPI T-15. And the radio he is talking about is actually an Aitronics Blazer sport, its just got an HPI sticker on it. Hes also got some backward HPI tires.
Everything else looks like smartech to me. I would assume a 200mm body would be what you need.

Just wondering, shouldn't this be in the FS/FT/WTB forum? I mean, if you're looking to BUY a body, I'd think posting a Wanted To Buy would help your cause a bit more.
Then again, I think Duratrax makes unbreakable stuff, that the Earth is flat, that men really do know what women want and are thinking about, that reality television is entertaining and that The Captain and Tennile are musical geniuses! So, take this with a grain of salt!

ok, the engine is hpi, the tyres are hpi, the reciever is hpi(so it says, but it might be the sticker) the tank is smartech, the top chassis is smrtech. the little smartech stuff on there will cause no harm in performance/reliability on it so i dont care. the front it was trashed(who'd ah thunk it) so i replaced it. I switched the tyres so there fine now.
From center of the posts, the front posts are 2 1/2" apart, the rear posts are 2 1/2" apart, and the front posts are 11 1/2" from the rear posts.
thanks for everyones help(with the acception of 4u2nv) for helping me out. I am still interested in a body if anybody's got one!
