The 1:10 Ferrari Dino body by ABC Hobbies replaced the old mini cooper plus some hop ups. Decals are a bit rubbery and seems inferior to original Tamiyas.
Thanks for your comments. The 512BB is also a 1:10 body by ABC Hobbies. Bought them from Jason of ebay. Will post more pics when I complete the project.
The Tamiya M-04 chassis has a longer wheelbase and will not fit these bodies. The front bonnet is also too low so you will have to use the Tamiya M-01. Furthermore, the steering must be relocated to the other end to make it rear-wheel-drive. This will accomodate the low front bonnet. I think the Tamiya M-02 can be modified for this body, too. Certainly not the M-03 which I have planned on and gave up. No experience with non-Tamiya chassis. Thanks for looking.

Jerome's 512BB is my inspiration. Hoping to get tips also from Mud-Plugger's Dino.
Great job on those bodies. The decals still look good, at least.
