Kyosho Fantom CRC-II body

[JimBear]

Does the CRC-II body fit on the EP-4WD (30635) version chassis? To find a second EP-4WD body seems to one of those "find a hairy egg" things, if one happens to mess it up. The CRC-II bodies seems to be around still.

If not, then it's not the end of the world, I could find something else that fits, like the RM-01 Porsche or the Yokomo GT1. Or a Midnight Pumpkin body.

I have the EP and 60th Gold edition. If you look at the chassis pics in the other Fantom thread, it appears the CRC and the 60 Gold share the same top deck. The EP is slightly different.

 

All 3 list the same wheelbase on the Kyosho site. Here's a side-by-side of my EP and 60 Gold body (gold on the right). They are slightly different in how the driver area is molded. Also note that the body holes are NOT pre-drilled, so that helps for "inter-changability" . I think the CRC body will work fine on the EP chassis.

Just noticed that the 60 Gold body appears to have body post "guide dimples" for both the EP and CRC chassis. So you should be good to go. 

 

And if you choose to go the RM-01 Porsche route like I did, here's what that looks like. Perfect fit.

@Room335 - that's great information, thank you very much! The Porsche looks super on there.
