Help with Backdraft 8e body
 
After doing a long search for a new clear body for my backdraft 8e, its sold out everywhere else.
Now if I wanted a pre-painted body, those are available. Are there any compatable bodies I can
use? Basically, I wanted to paint a custom body for fun.

All comments welcome.

Thanks, Nitro... Good question.
Been wondering if they are compatable. Both are 1:8 scale. hmmm
The hurrican looks much wider. which is sweet in a way. reminds me
of the hpi vorza body

More to come once it arrives. Like I said, more to come. I am thinking of a color scheme right now.
