Default Anyone have the body I'm looking for?

Hello.

The body I am looking for is a Holden Monaro, aka Holden Commodore VX, and Pontiac GTO

Apparently I can't post an image of the car because I haven't made enough posts, which seems kind of stupid...But hopefully you know what car Im talking about.

I don't care if it is painted, unpainted, scratched, new, old, or anything. I just really need one!!

I will obviously pay for it, and shipping to where I live, no matter the cost.

Thanks for looking!

I don't care.

It needs to be 1/10th, But it will be mostly a display car, so Im not fussed as to what shape.

A 1/10th touring one would be ideal, though.

That is absolutely close enough, but I couldn't see it on their website. Do you have a link?

I am not sure about the body on its own, but there are some el cheapo RTR "kits" that come with these bodies in 190mm (I think). You might have to buy the whole kit though.

Here's one example:

https://hobbytechtoys.com.au/colt-1-...-4ghz-rtr.html

You could try to get in touch with the shop and ask if they can get you the body only. My feeling is that it will come painted and stickered (finished) though.

And there's many other companies nobody ever heard of that have such cars at any given time. Not sure if they're all licensed so you'd have to get in quick before the product is withdrawn. I have seen many of these over the years. Some are totally legit and the cars have realistic V8 supercars series livery.

And an officially licensed one:

Ok, thanks for the replies!!

Madmaxaus:Thanks man, but thats the VY. I need a VX or VT. They were completely re-designed.

Niznai:Unfortunately, those 2 cars are a VF and VE, whereas I need a VX or VT

Lonestar: You might have misunderstood what I meant. I have seen those guys, I've got their other V8's. Its the specific model of car I need.

vx, second from the bottom. pt. No. FR21N.
Its 190mm though by the looks so may not be wide enough for nitro chassis.
