Ok everyone get involved, I have 2 options for bodies on the 1/8 crawler first: a single cab truck, second: an open top Jeep.
This is a pol for all of you to make your choice, come on help me out Edit: I can't seem to add the polling to this, so just like the post with the picture of the body you ...well ...like If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate

HI!... I vote for the truck body. The jeep body looks the wrong scale for the chassis/wheels. A grave digger body would be even better.

I don't like either, but I suppose if it comes down to it I hate the red one less
I'm thinking more 12" action figure / 1:6 scale jeep - I'm not 100% sure of the dimensions by any means, but it could be a reasonably off the shelf solution (as opposed to making one from scratch). A lot of them from memory are made of blow-moulded polypropylene or similar, but this one - a vintage "Marx Toys" "Command Patrol" Jeep (ebay 191433252960) looks to be an injection moulded styrene like plastic. The box states "over 21 long", so making a lot of assumptions (inches, "over" is optimistic, including bumpers & tow bar) I extrapolate a wheelbase of something around 315mm. |

That has to be one of the horriblest, most vomit-inducing things I have ever seen. Red truck for me I think. |
