Tamiya Bodies.. HELP!
 
Ok, so I was looking through some bodies by Tamiya ® and I was wondering if those Supra and NSX bodies would fit... now I know its not goint to fit snuggly with the wheels but I dont mind if the body is really wide, all I am concerned with is how the wheels will look. If anyone can tell me how it would look, I would really appreciate it. I was wondering how it would look like looking at it from the side.. I was wondering if it would come out lop sided or if it would come out even with the same ammount of space on the front wheel well and the rear.

( = fender
) = fender
O= wheel
_= side of car
. = space between wheel and fender

A. (...O.)_________(.O..) (I had to add dots because w/o it A and B looked the same, but ignore the dots)

or

B. (.O.)__________(.O.)

If anyone could please tell me which one it would look like, I would really appreciate it.

EDIT: Sorry I forgot to include this link.. lol :D http://www.ehobbies.com/models-shop-...orts-cars.html

they probably will not fit since they 1/24 scale. u could make it fit by chopping away some of it. u have a better chance of it fitting with a 1/25. i found a 1/25 scale shelby that fit just about perfectly, but its a convertible.:mad:

Really? I've never seen a model Shelby Mustang convertible.

rats.


Anybody got a Shelby "Eleanor" Mustang model (plastic) that would fit on an XMOD that they could give me for free?

After searching through some of my model bodies, It appears that your diagram "A" lis going to be the answer.. unless you stretch the chassis to fit.. :rolleyes:

poop.. I just ordered an Efini RX-7 for my XMOD™, if it doesnt fit my XMOD™ I'll just make the model and sit it somewhere lol..

EDIT: Oh yea, the model cost me 2 dollars on eBay NIB (new in box).. for 2 bux you cant go wrong. And yes its 1:24, so it should fit with some modifications.
