It depends. The Wolf WR-1 and Lotus 79 are new and were designed for the F104 chassis, but all the other F104W bodies are the same shells as the original F103 bodies and will fit straight on. Tamiya made them fit by hanging the rear out the back of the body. There are plenty of alternatives from other manufacturers, look for bodies made for the F103.
The only small problem that is easily fixed is the front wings, F103/F104 front wings need to be trimmed a little to fit inside the F101/102 front suspension.
Tamiya recently re-released the Group C chassis, so the front and rear end spare parts for the F101/F102 are now available again.

Now I can look for a new fine body for my old car....

what ESC for F1/group C?
Ok so i've been looking around for a few weeks now, but the more i read, the more uncertain i get...
Should i buy Novak, tekin, castle or Reventon ??
They all seem to be about the same size, have the same functions and priced very similar...
Reading the forums i feel i read more negative than possitive on all the products.
So what should i choose and why?
As of now I'm leaning against the Reventon R, it looks the part a d the software solution seems clever.

Personal favourite is the Hobbywing Xtreme Stock, although it's not on your list. Of the four you have listed I would only choose the Tekin or Reventon, if you can stretch to the price then go for the Tekin, if your budget isn't that great go for the Reventon.

Lotus 98 or 99T
Will a Lotus 98 or 99T body fit over a 104, if it does where can I find one? Tamiya has discontinued!

Wing mount http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/ite...uct-id=9114019
Rear wing end plates http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/ite...uct-id=9804457
It should fit on an F104 chassis, you will just end up with the motor pod being 10mm further out the rear of the body.

Chassis material for asphalt
What is the best chassis material for a DD (direct drive) F1 on asphalt? FRP or Carbon fiber?
I am switching from a FGX IRS to a DD car this season and want to know what people have been running on slightly bumpy asphalt.
Also are people running different combo's like Carbon main chassis with FRP rear pod and upper deck or other combo's?
Just dont want to waste the money on a new carbon chassis if it is not needed.
