Default 515mm body on a 535mm WB car?

A buddy of mine asked me if it was possible to install a Ferrari F40 GT body (515mm) on his Sportsline 2004 long wheelbase (535mm) chassis?

If not, what modifications would be needed?

That body is collectible as it has since been discontinued. You might get a pretty penny for it.

Hi Tony!

I noticed it was quite expensive at 196 Euro + 160 Euro for shipping [X(]

I managed to find someone down here that owns the same Sportsline 2004 as I have. He wanted the change but I'd doubt it'll be worth the change as to complete the look, he'll need also a new "medium length" chassis, a set of 4 tires plus maybe body mounts as well. In the end, he may as well buy a new kit

But I must say, a 1/5 F40 will look pretty damn awesome in original colors. Its too bad Ferrari wanted too much royalty for these bodies it has to be discontinued.
