Default Blank Canvas for a savage

I'm looking for a new body for my savage 4.6ss that will give me enough room to put some decent graphics. I've got a design I want to do but don't know which body to put it on. Only bodies I won't use are the H2 and Escalade anything (too many of both). Just wondering what some of you suggest as a good show body.

Maybe the Proline Muscle (SUV Type Body) or '50 Chevy Panel Truck (may be discontinued but look around).
These have lots of room on them for art.

I say get a Dodge Ram Megacab body. Dodge's diesel trucks are just awesome.

Though I may be a bit biased working at a Dodge dealership

Paint it with the Night Runner theme



Or make it resemble Big Red

The streamliner wouldnt be to bad.

What about the Crowd Pleazer Muscle 2.0 from proline??

Whats your paint scheme consist of?? I think knowing that would give others a better idea of what would work best for you.

Its a canadian flag blended with an american flag tear with blue and white flames as accents and some other ghosted in graphics. The canadian american flag blend is going to be stretched throughout the whole body. Plus some carbon fiber affects placed within the tear effects.

How about an HPI Wrangler Rubicon, or their 69 Charger, or the El Camino?

wow, that is awsome, how much would you charge to put almost exactly that on a rc18t body? but it would be all dark blue (instead of red) with bigger flames (reaching almost the start of the back wheel hole thingy ), and some black flames with white/light blue tips?

or all black and dark blue with white/light blue flames? with the graphite too

plz pm me a price (that includes a crowd plazer)
