Thanks for all the complements guys :)

Yeah i like the excavators, but the big mt tires do make the truck look sick. I'm debating selling one set of wheels/tires.

I cant in good conscious shell out $200 for a body, as good as it may be, they are gauging the community IMO.

I like the MCD Bodies, are they white though?

What do you guys think about this body? For $68 shipped i think i might go for it. Maybe grab 2 for that price.

Sweet, glad you like it :) Hows the wheelbase match up?

I pulled the trigger and got 2 for $124 shipped :cool:

One for the MT, and one for my Shredder/Tuscon. I didnt really want the same body for both, but its too good of deal to pass up. I'll just make sure to paint them very differently. I think i'll go blue on the MT and Red on the Shredder/Tuscon

Yeah man, i would jump on one, they wont last forever. I wanted to wait until spring but i'm sure they will be gone by then.

Got the bodies in!! They looks good and are a very good fit for the wheel base of the MT/TT. The Side exhaust is touching though. I might try wraping it with some kind of exhaust shield and cut a small hole for the exhaust to exit. Its either that or cut a large part of the side out which i would rather not do.

The bodies seem pretty tough, but thin out some on the sides near the bottom. Probably due to the molding process of most bodies.

Sadly there wont be any finished pics for awhile, as its too cold out to paint. :(

I can post up some pics clear if anyone is interested.
