That body does NOT get run...I slap the Skyline on it when I take it out. BTW, I wrote Bolink about muscle cars (the camaro is a Bolink), and they said that they still have the molds, and are considering bringing them back this fall.

Cool man, thanks for letting us know.....you should do one in red, that would be a sexy color for the body.

Thanks a lot!! I really hope Bolink (or anyone) brings back the muscle cars. I'd like to make this one a cruiser body, and do one just for show.

Here's my weekend project. It's a 1/18 radio control "Dukes of Hazzard" car picked up at Wal-Mart for 5 Bucks!!!!...I repainted the body, and mounted it on my MRS4. It took only some slight grinding on the wheel wells, but it fits.

It wasn't bad...the front went right on. For the back, I used a stock MRS4 rear deck with the posts cut off. I flipped it backward, screwed it directly to the body (there were mounting screws), and used cut body posts to attach it to the car's rear deck. The worst part was painting. It took 4 tries, with lots of sanding to keep it from orange peeling....Anyway, it was worth 5 bucks.
