How would you make your own RC shell from scratch?? - 05-05-2009, 02:49 PM

Right hello everyone,

I have just made a remote control car, but the shell is for some sort of NASCAR vehicle. I am wanting to change to body to give to my good friends son, he seems to really like Mazda's, but no store does the right sized model and shell.

Does anyone have any idea how or if it is even possible to from scratch build and entire remote control Shell???


Thank you.

Buy a giant Vacuum moulder and then start hand making a scale die of the vehicle you want it too look like..... Or go to L.H. and look through the mountains of bodies there and save like 20k!
