53HRA 2,980 Posted May 30, 2018 If the body is ABS, then consider it sold. The detail will be perfect just like all their bodies .... Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will probably be lexan hope I'm wrong but even if it is if is hopefully it will be nicely detailed as well I'm still sold I'm looking at getting a cc01 soon so might just hold off and see what this looks like Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET 505 Posted May 30, 2018 The CC-01 is one of the only Tamiya chassis (apart from the CR01, that I can think of) to use either Lexan or ABS shells - Hopefully they'll use ABS or, at worst, a Lexan shell with ABS detail (grille etc) 1 Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mond 1,163 Posted May 30, 2018 Just need the body. CC01 bodies fit the MST CMX/CFX 1 Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC01 bodies fit the MST CMX/CFX This would be my preferred route too. the cc01 chassis’ are ok, once you pumped some more cash into it, then takes you to the point of getting something decent to start with. had a few over the years and the only one I had that honestly worked, came in at 500 inc. kit and still couldn’t go the same places a stock scx10 would go. looking forward to seeing pics, prices etc. The wife not so much Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC01 bodies fit the MST CMX/CFX Trouble is, Tamiya bodies are usually expensive The Pajero hard shell (no windscreen or trim) is around £40 online Killerbody's 90 is £57 from MS Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mond 1,163 Posted May 31, 2018 I don't think that would fit the CC01/CMX length chassis though. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET 505 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) I guess it depends how 1/10 scale the KB shell is - If it's true scale, the wheelbase should be 229mm and shortest CC01/CMX WB is 242mm Team Raffee do a CFX-friendly D90; https://www.asiatees.com/article?[Video]-Custom-Built-MST-CFX-%26-TRC-Kahn-D90-Defender--&id=2944 Edited June 1, 2018 by TWINSET Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET 505 Posted June 4, 2018 Grille looks like an insert, shell's polycarb Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetoR 2,512 Posted June 4, 2018 Lose the CC-01 bumper (as everyone does) and that'll look very handsome!... except for the wheels. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz! 3,716 Posted June 4, 2018 But the landy doesn’t have ifs have to say say a nice bowler replica would look superb guessing around the £180 mark though. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modelsport have it listed already at £199 (RRP £225) https://www.modelsport.co.uk/tamiya-1-10-land-rover-defender-90-cc-01/rc-car-products/432309 IS that good?

Gaz! 3,716 Posted June 4, 2018 Not cheap by any means at 199, might just wait for a bodyset.... Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET 505 Posted June 5, 2018 Not cheap? extortionate more like The VW Amarok's only £159 and the (hard bodied) MU is £169 1 Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC4WD fan 1,123 Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) Now I like the look of that but not the price that's 1 of the 2 things I don't like the other is as @big gaz said they don't have IFS think I would wait for the bodyset and get one hopefully I'll have an cc-01 chassis by then Edited June 5, 2018 by RC4WD fan Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mond 1,163 Posted June 6, 2018 That D90 is for the W? I could be wrong! Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET 505 Posted June 6, 2018 Ah - The one in the video link is for the non W - Not sure about the one on Modelsport as there's no wheelbase dimensions etc. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twisty 112 Posted June 10, 2018 The body mounts ruin it for me,why didn`t they use the reversed type like on the GT 01 chassis. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
