Ok so recently I have gotten into nitro rc cars. The road car I have uses 200mm bodys. I was wondering if they make/made a fiero body for these? If so does anyone know where I could find one? I would love to build my rc to match my real car or come close to it.

Fellow r/c'er, I have looked and looked for these as well. The only one I have found is an old GT1 body. I think it was Tamaya that made it. Some of the cool kids have taken one of the older corded rc fiero and hacked onto a regular rc chassis. Other than that, youre outta luck! Sorry!

I have seen a couple, there no longer being produced by anyone (that i know of). The only way your going to find one is ebay or the mall section from time to time...

BTW, I have about $10k is nitro r/c gear that I no longer use (since my daughter was born, I do not have the extra time anymore). So if you need anything, LMK. I used to race 1/8 off road, but I also have a couple 1/10 on roads that I rarking-lot raced w/ buddies. I have a brand new, fully optioned Associated NTC3 sitting on the shelf and a HP nitro RS4 fully optioned as well...

How much would you pay for a Fiero body? I have the ability to make one but it would be time consuming on my part.

What body style and would it fit the tamiya and hpi chassis? And what roughly would your time be worth? Im sure we have several members on here that would be interested in one!!

It could be made whatever scale and body style you needed. It wouldn't be exact because it has to come off the buck but it would look like a fiero. What is my time worth? I have no clue, I should make a buck first before any promises are made.

I have a Bolink #2370 Fiero body, I think it's a 10th scale body



Here it is sitting on a few different cars

a rc10


a Kyosho Rampage truck



and an TA Nitro TC3



It doesn't quite fit the car I want to build a Fiero body for.........



It's a Harms 1/4 scale, I have a scale drawing made of a GT choptop and someday I plan on trying to make a fiberglass body.

Judging by how it fits on that NTC3, im guessing 1/8 or an odd 1/9th scale. Unless it was intended for use on a 1/10 monster truck?

Fiberglass body would be nice for a shelf queen, but if you were going to run it, the first curb you hit, it would be toast. Kinda like the old school Tamiya Black Foot bodies; Hard plastic (not poly-carb) cracked very easy...

Ditto on the scale ^^^^ The tc3 is a 1/10 scale. Thats an odd size on that body. Im sure if you put it out there you might get several responses to make a buck for the right scale! Both body types would be awesome!

I'm pretty sure the body was sold for the 1/10 scale BoLink Pan car.

Is the pan car a different set up than the touring sedans from now? Or maybe its just the angle of the pic.

Things keep getting smaller... this car was from the late 80's



I'm not sure of the actual dimensions of the chassis but it was pretty wide

Yeah the bolink body was the one I was wondering about. I remember seeing one of those a few years ago but now seeing it on the tc3 (the chassis I want the body for) it wouldnt look right.
