Default Just picked up a Tamiya TB04R

Tamiyausa has a few vehicles on sale, and I found a TB04R for only $225. I have absolutely no need for this car, and I have nowhere besides the street to drive it. But it was cheap for an R model, and I've been bored staying home in self isolation, so I pulled the trigger. I also picked up a Suzuki SX4 body for $25. That can go on my old TA02 rally car to replace the poor old, beat up Asterion pick-up body (which looked good with 75mm tires on it, until many many roll overs and crashes).

I'm still unsure what electronics to put in it or what body to put on it. I'm not really sure I will even run it or leave it as a shelf queen. If I do make it a shelf queen, I will have to figure out which car gets bumped from being displayed and put into the garage.

Anybody want to give suggestions on a body to put on it? I'd prefer Tamiya, as their bodies are always gorgeous and properly fit the width and wheelbase of their cars.
