Default HPI Body Question

Hello All,

Will HPI 1966 Shelby Mustang 200mm Fit on the Tamiya TA02 Chassis? The Wheelbase on the TA02 is 260mm. I just want to make sure before I make a purchase. Thank you all very much!

Thank you for your help bluecaka, I was aware the difference while reserching for different body's wheelbase measurement. I was just wondering if anyone have actually done it with good result. I will give it a try.

Thank you

All right, I have a Jato and I want to put a cooler body on it than just the everyday stadium truck body... I found an HPI body: it is a 200mm body for a touring car. My question is how much chopping do I need to do to get it onto the Jato, and is it 'do-able'?
