Modified factory bodies

[brushless12v]

So I have somethign in the works for by Base Camp, the Barbie Truck. - https://www.rctalk.com/forum/showcase/scx24-base-camp.263/

No spoilers, I'll post it when I am done.

But, that idea got me thinking of some other ideas to modify the body. I will be keeping it pink, but I have some other ideas for changes.

Got me thinking though. You see a lot of comp builds with no bodies. And you see a lot of new bodies made specifically for the SCX24s (and others, right now I only have the 24s). Of course, there are awesome ones by companies like Injora and Meus and others. And the 3D printed market is amazing. Then, of course, you have the creative people who have modified toy bodies and made them work.

But one think I haven't seen much of is keeping the factory body, but really modding it into something special.

Of course, now I am going down the rabbit trial with my Basecamp and JLU....

But, anyone got pics of some factory but heavily modded bodies?

I have a heavily nodded body i did a few months ago, the body was a toy grade wrecker of my grandson's, he's got 2 of them, I stretched it 5.5 inches and had to widen 3" to fit my Revo.
