Wondering if this would work on a HPI Savage 21? Or is it not the same size? Thanks guys!
 
On HPI's website...

But it depends. Do you have a T-Maxx 3.3? It has a 13.2" wheelbase. The T-Maxx has a 12" wheelbase.
 
@Greywolf74 would you happen to know?
My best guess would be yes if its an original TMAXX body. I base that on the fact that the Proline bodies I looked up that are compatible with the TMAXX also say they are compatible with HPI Savage (original). The 3.3 TMAXX has a longer wheelbase than the older TMAXX and I would bet that the Savage .21 has a shorter wheelbase like the original TMAXX. I can only guess though as I've never owned a Savage .21

So a T-Maxx classic body shell should fit? I'm wondering because I'm getting a savage 21 and it will need a bodyshell. Good to know!

I'm just taking an educated guess at it but from what I see on the proline bodies and what WF posted above Id say that theres a good possibility that it would fit.
 
Check your wheelbase on the Savage, and check the wheelbase on the body you want. If they jive... you should be good to go. But there always may issues with body post alignment, other things in the way of the features of the body, etc.
