Default TA-02 F150 body

I am restoring an original Tamiya F150 and one of the main things it needs is a body. I can obviously just get a new stock F-150 body that came with the truck, but I am kind of looking at other options. This truck will end up on a shelf, used occasionally indoors. I would love to find a hard body....New Bright style, but I'm not stuck on that idea.

Looking for opinions.

Are you refering to the Tamiya Blackfoot body or the lexan F-150 Lightning body?

If you're not running outside anymore, then keeping a polystyrene body in good shape should be easy indoors.

Yeah, I know. Even though I am "restoring" it, for some reason I really just don't want to go with another original body.
