I found a clear plastic 1/10th scale body on eBay that was being sold by a company in Germany. But I have never seen a complete kit for making an RC Porsche 914. You will have to scratch build one.

I remember some of the guys offering body’s up for sale from my guess 2007-2012 here on World


I have a nice used Vacuform machine to pull the bodies if the tooling for a pull into form is around. One can be made from an old one or today can they be made in 3-d replicator?

Pretty easy. Buy a tamiya Rc car and then just switch the body to this one.

I thought it was the M04L Tamiya chassis

I bought all the parts, but I am saving it for a retirement project.

I took part in the group buy and sent the body off to David McLaughlin I think his name was. He painted it exactly like my actual car. Oh, and it rips!

I ordered one of these and 914-gt stickers from Germany as well as trying to get a couple of bodies sent to me from Germany

The wheels work great for a clone of #41
