That's a very nice job on a McAllister Camaro SS!

Great looking body Crispy!

Here's one I just finished for a local racer. HPI 68 Camaro. He wanted his colors. Hand cut graphics. Man, this body glows. You will see it on the track!

My favorite car from that era is the 70 boss 302 mustang with the headlights on the inside grill and the 2 horizontal scoops next to them on the outside. Who do you guys think makes the best looking body for that car? I think I have seen McAllistars rendition just wondering about other bodies out there...

The HPI Boss 302 is the body I am currently running. So far I like it better then the Javelin. I never got into the 2 piece nose.

The Boss is a tad heavier than some other bodies, but it can really be slammed on the chassis and still allow clearance for the wheels. The front end is extreamly durable with the exception of the lower air dam. You really need to strengthen that with some shoe goo and drywall tape. Here is a couple of paint schemes I have done on the Boss.

My TC4 VTA racer and M05 racers.

Wanted a classic look for my VTA and the VW GTI are painted like WW2 German fighter planes.

I'm pretty rough on a shell, at least when I am racing. You are right. The Boss holds up well to a beating. The blue black two tone is my favorite of yours.

All I can think is.......THE RIDDLER......
I can't begin to tell you the rash of s#!t I got when I ran a fluorescent flamed 68 Camaro body. It was my favorite to drive though.

Riddler or the Joker? He will probably get some $$@!!# at our track too for the neons, but he's not the kind of guy to worry too much about it. He's new VTA I think. He runs other classes and wanted his colors on his VTA car. Numbers and layout are good.
