atom3624 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Kamtec have a big choice - Lexan (clear shells for painting inside) and ABS (hard shells you paint outside) in a mix of 1/10 and 1/12. Check their website for more details. Al. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realmackay Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hi thanks for that, Ive ordered an Escort shell of them on ebay, they are 1/12 scale just wanted to know if they would fit any Tamiya chassis..?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadJFly Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I have their V12 Escort Mk1 shell and this fits my swb M03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realmackay Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 Hi there, Thanks for that info, I was sure I thought a Tamiya chassis would fit this shell, I take it you can also run on the minilite wheels of the Mini, do they fit inside the shell or do you have to cut the shell a bit more...?? Thanks for all the help lads, cant wait to get something built and do a bit of rallying with my MK 2 Escort.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadJFly Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 you have to cut it yourself, but yeah, it should fit with no problems 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
