Classic style bodies.
Hello all.
i have started making my own bodies for my cars, as I am not a fan of the cab forward craze that seems to be the current default for manufacturers. Although Schumacher are not too bad in this regard, I have started with what I run. So, I thought I'd post them up and see if there would be any demand for them. First one is a rear cab version for the K1 i'm dubbing the "Viper" This had decent room for wiring, and I added extra depth at the front around the chassis so it fits better. this is designed to use the standard body mounts. Currently I'm working on a more traditional CAT/Cougar body for the K2R and K2F, and I will try to work that design for the K1 as well. Will post more soon. |

Bravo
I don't run Schumacher cars, but also don't like the cab forward designs. Good luck with the venture as I think they look great

any chance you could do a slightly wider cat sx3 body for the k1 ? the front on the k1 is a little wider than the sx3

Hmmm, yes have been thinking about something similar. A sleeker mid cab body is definitely on the cards. Biggest problems with the K1 is clearance for the motor and steering servo/horn. It really limits what you can do.

KF2 body
This is my new Cougar KF2 body, based on the look of the Cougar 2 but fits KF and KF2 models. You do need to drill the shock tower to fit a body mount. works with rear mounted shock tower also. Suits low grip and front motor mounts, I will modify for the MM soon or if I get a request.
Let me know if you like it. Last edited by Maskellator; 21-08-2015 at 08:00 AM. |

Thanks mate! Working on some driver figure molds to finish them off, as well as some retro style wings!

They look brilliant. I think an old school YZ-870c style shell for the YZ-4 would be fantastic. I'd certainly run those.

Haha, yes the super doggy body is definitely on my inspiration list. No doubt someone over here will have a YZ-4 I might be able to snaffle for a while...
