My TT01 based 68 camaro built to resemble my 69. I'm waiting for HPI to release the 69 body so I can do a real replica down to the wheels....







The inspiration. My TA inspired 69.


And its no garage queen.





+ YouTube Video

[/QUOTE]

They've released a part # on the 69 body but its not available yet...

That looks nice, and it's good to have more choices.
I was hoping for something different than another Camaro or Mustang though.

I currently run the hpi 68 caramo, but i would like to see for new bodys the 68 cougar, 69 amx javlin, 68 or 69 chevelle,69 corvette,68 or 69 nova,68 trans am,70 challenger,but the one body i would want over all is the 71 ford torino cobra 428cj, along with what we currently have for vta bodies.Chances are they wont be done,but it would be cool to have more of a choice for bodies.

whoa...lil buddy.....no way.....not even close...

Bolink part numbers:
BL2262 '68 Chevrolet Camaro
BL2263 '65 Ford Mustang

HPI part numbers:
17510 - 1970 Plymouth AAR 'Cuda
17519 - 1966 Ford Mustang GT
17508 - 1965 Ford Shelby GT-350
7494 - 1968 Chevrolet Camaro

Parma part numbers:

thats 12 bodies to choice from and unlimited paint schemes to do....plus when you add the 2 new HPI bodies, thats 14....I know we are still looking at Chevy,Ford, and Dodge...but its better than basic one choice in TC with a possible 2nd.....thats also why I run RCGT bodies in TC...more choices

no comparing to TC at all....
