Default buggy: full body???

Hi everyone,

I've planned to put a full body(covers the wheels) on my rc buggy to ride on the streets(because I allready broke my front shocks 3 times when riding into a pole).But I don't know if this is possible. If it is possible:-wich scale/manifactorer does the body have to be and how do I attach it to the chassis?
I allready found some body's(scale 1/7). They were the right width but the wheelbases were allmost 2inches to long.

Thx,

Dempy

Check here for bodies. Pick your scale.

It's from a Belgian brand. So it's not famous.
It's a Phaser4. If you look on google you'll find it.

Default Full body

OK here we go.

What you have their is either a Ofna or a Sinyah. Both of them are so close in appearance that unless I can get much better photos I can't tell the difference. I have both and they are great racers. In any event your best bet to do this is one that will require a little time on your part. I suggest that you get 3 photos of your car one whole car (no body) from the top, one close up of the front end from the top (specifically the diff housing needs to be seen) and do the same to the rear with the rear wing removed to get the best view. The photos need to be high quality so that when you sent them to the address below they can blow them up and look at some specific mounting areas for the new body mounts. Secondly you will need to look at their selection of bodies at the site listed below. This is not hard but it will take some time. If you want me to see if I can do this for you then I still need the photos so I can determine which mount set you need. Once this is done you will mount your body with no problems.
