I believe any 1/10th scale stadium truck body will fit with some modification. I put a RC10gt body on my old traxxas nitro hawk and it worked out fine but I had to trim a little more in some spots. The only thing is the body I put on my hawk was unpainted so I could mark all the trouble spots throught the clear lexan, then after marking my body mount locations I cut and then painted. With painted bodies it will be a little more difficult.
 
LOL ill just hack away at it.
 
Use a dremel if you can. Makes for some really clean work. Just make sure you wear a mask. The 50 cent ones at the hardware store work just fine.
 
No dremel but could get my hands on one.
 
YES, use a dremel. I bought my first one back in the 90's when they first came out to do a body on my old RC10 championship edition and since then used it religously on EVERYTHING! I am on my 4th one now and they make trimming lexan a lot easier than scissors and it makes for real top notch work.
 
you guys ever seen that escalade body from proline..its for the t-maxx but its a suv so i think i could fit it onto the rusty. Any input?
