Where can I buy an R/C 914 body shell?
Which chassis setups are most popular? I've seen the Alfa-Romeo m-04m options. is anyone running anything else? Here is the latest pic of the wheels I am working on for them, I'm to a point where I want to start fitting the back spacing to a car and have one right here in front of me to use. This way I can start making the 'other' styles of wheels as well. Attached image(s) |

There was a group buy a couple of years ago, the shells came from somewhere in Europe if I remember right. I bought two and will prolly never get around to building both so if you are interested in one send me a pm. I will look and see what I paid for em and get a price for ya.
The guy that runs AirBoston graphics put the buy together but I dont remember his handle here. I will check my old emails and let you know. Jim Edit: ok here is the link to the old group buy R/C shell group buy by djm914-6. David did a great job putting the whole thing together, plus he does some amazing paint work on these as well. I havent seen him post here in awhile but I may have missed it if he did too. Jim send me a pm if you want one of the shells. |

Yes, Carson it is!! I unfortunately had to buy on the group buy list and it cost me dearly with shipping charges and the person who organized it decided half way through he didn't want to ship to me cause I didn't want to pay for his painting charge as I like to paint them myselves (after much begging) he only charged me 70 dollars for shipping and it ended up showing up with an 18 dollar stamp on it and when I asked about this he got upset at me and said I was pissing him off and he had had it up to here with me, a very disapointing group deal...
My car actully arrived damaged and will require semi major repairs but that is half the fun...I am just about to finish the chasis now with a friend from work and am waiting on some wheels from a friend in the US.
