Hugo,
Yes. The wheels are HPI 26mm fronts with 0 offset. The rears are 31mm with 6mm offset. These will make the 200mm fit your 190mm car correctly.

Here is a Protoform J71 I just finished up for VBC Racing USA team manager, Dave Ehrlich, for the IIC race in Vegas. If you are familiar with the AMC logo, you can see what I came up with for VBC.

Thumbs up

Nice 70's vibe on the Javelin with the color selection. Good job with the AMC inspired VBC logo. The white trim will also help the car show up on the track.

Thumbs up!

Thanks Indy. What looks like white is actually a very pale yellow.

You get into Wimbledon white and ivory and I have a hard time distinguishing them from a pale yellow. Especially in low light.

In case you didn't notice the threads, McAllister racing has released (as in ready to buy) a 1970 VTA Camaro. Here is a link - http://www.rctech.net/forum/13566666-post1.html

They also released a 1968 VTA Cougar. Here is a link - http://www.rctech.net/forum/13566685-post1.html

Other than the Dodge Dart, is there body that isn't available now?

1968-1969 Javelin
1963 Ford Falcon
1968 Plymouth Barracuda

The latter two were one-offs. Didn't run the full series the year they ran.

Gary McAllister is awesome. My next body will be a '70 Camaro. My '70 Pontiac is holding up awesome though, way better than the HPI bodies I ran.
