Deceitful Supra...It's what you don't see that gets ya.

Looks innocent enough from the outside? Well, it is what is packed under that shell that counts. I found a way to slap the Supra body on my 6 cell 7.2v modded chassis with out changing the appearance of the body, other than the decals.

I cut some of the rear mounting tab supports enough so that the battery pack could slide back towards the rear and get out of the windshield. I also added a spacer (bushing) between that tab and where it screws into the body. This raises the rear a little, but not too much to notice. This gives the room needed to have the battery pack under the body and still attach it properly. I hot glued the battery pack to the inside roof and installed the quick connect on the wiring so I can remove the body easily.
