Hi Watsy

I have also been looking for new shells.
I assume you mean you are looking for something other than the HPI shells for the XL right?

Here is what i have found so far

Proline F-650






SC8 Body





Slayer Body







Flo-tek Slash Body






I have also read that most of the bodies for the Associated MGT will also fit quite well.

Hope that helps

I still haven't decided on what to get for mine.

Cheers

Ben

Yeah i quite like the desert truck look

Its certainly different fro a Savage

I'm thinking they will get damaged pretty quickly though?

what do you think?

That Slayer looks good.. The SC8 looks goofy IMO.. SC8 bodies fall apart too really quicky.. And that's on an SC8. Too big and rattly...

oh really? thats good to know. yes, im also a fan of the slayer sits and looks. i found the orignal post of the owner of that truck and he said he made a mistake by calling it a slayer.he went on to say it was a proline desert rat. i dont remember what forum it was. maybe savage central
