Default Newer GTO body

Hello all I am new here and figured this would be a good place to ask. Does anyone know where I can get a newer body style Pontiac GTO body? Thanks for your help.

There is no such body that most of us know of. However, check with the dudes from Austrailia. They seem to produce bodies down there that never make it to the rest of the world.

if looking for the GTO body, and you are looking "down under"... you would be looking for a Holden Commodor body. I don't believe that you will find the 2dr version of this car, but they do have the FREWER HOLDEN COMMODORE SUPERCAR 1/10 200MM SHELL FR38NW.....that is what the tag sais on the one that I had painted for a guy about a year ago. Very nice looking body, was a lot like the Alpha protoform body.

As RC foolz says, you will be looking for the Holden Commodore body as it will be the closest body to the GTO.
Saying that, i remember a manufacturer made a kit with a Monaro body, but i'm not sure whether the body is available on its own.
I will need to make some enquiries and get back to you, or maybe one of my fellow Aussies can help out with more info!
