    E21 RC Car Body?

    Does anyone know if they exist? I am thinking about getting into the world of pavement RC cars (as opposed to stadium trucks...) and there is an E30 M3 one, but I can't find an E21.

    Something like this:

    good question, if so I'd like one also.

    sonomaGTLN2, are you running electric or gas powered?

    I have done electric and nitro RC cars for the past 7 years and I have never seen any bodys for 1/10 or 1/8 scale, however a long time ago I think I saw an E30 body on a TL01 I will talk to my local supplier maybe he can get a e21 one in and I could send it do ya.

    I wish I know of one or had made one, but it just became more time consuming then I had time for, to keep making body tools. My only two sedan bodies were of BTTC Volvo 850's 1995 Wagon and 1996 sedan, I do beleave someone has made a Datsun 510 though.

    Tamiya, i believe, made a car that was based on an E21, but i've never seen a lexan modular body.

    i only have nitro cars in 1/10 size, but if i came across one, i'd buy an electric chassis... just cause i know how long the body lasts on a nitro car.

    Yeah I race electrics. I might pick up the E30 M3 and just do my color scheme on it, though any BMW enthusiast would point out the error as soon as they see it. Anyone know why deziac got their license revoked? Upon further review, it looks like he was shamelessly plugging for a personal business.

    Old thread lift. But does anyone know where to find a Volvo 850 Wagon 1:10 body?

    It looks really cool. Here some pics from Tamiya club:

    This probably isn't quite what you were going for. Went out and bought an e21 model and used the body for a gen II x-mod. the finished product looks alot better but you get the idea.

    Bump for an old thread, but I'm really interested in one of these Volvo bodies, if they're still available. Thanks!

    Yes I have the wagons in stock along with the 1995 BTCC sticker sheet for them. Bodies are $28.00 and the sticker sheets are $10.95 each and shipping should be $8.95 to you for one or two bodies.

    The bodies come with the detail sticker sheets in them, head lights, grille, tail lights and an I love my Volvo scale bumper sticker. PM if you are interested.
