Im kicking around buying a C8 Corvette body, but the front clip mount is weird for the van and i havent found a answer yet to were I can pick up that part. The body kit comes with the correct rear mount for the C8, but the front must be somewhat the same for other models.

This guy?

Looks like 9313 is the regular clip less mount for the C8.

That's the body side that comes with the body kit. I need the chassis side.

Or is it the actual mount where the body clips on the chassis? These are the part #’s for the C8 4tec front end

Big thanks for all that.
I'm debating on what to do atm. I'm not really into this sort of thing, not sure I'd like to dump a bunch of money into something that's just going to chill on a shelf.

There were a couple Megalodon posts somewhere on here. I wouldn’t let my kids bring the fancy rc cars to Yellowstone because we only had so much room in the RV. But there has been a lot of off road action and almost lost it a couple times. Lol

Ive had my E Maxx for 20 yrs. Sits on the shelf for sometimes years at a time but every now and then it comes down for some backyard bashing.
Would be cool to get a Pioneer body for it but havent seen one yet.

Also have a vintage 89 Clod Buster in parts with a never installed Novak SuperRooster esc from 97. Was in the middle of a teardown and upgrade when they came out with the E Maxx and then I changed direction

I've gone down the drone rabbit hole with a tiny whoop. I went with the Meteor 85 Walksnail with Walksnail goggles and Radio Master Pocket radio. The RM Pocket is nice, the lipos are cheap for the drone but short flight times 5-6 minutes it only weighs 53 grams.

Nice, a friend of mine has been doing the competitive drone racing stuff for a few years now. I bet he's got like 30 of them....

Post of some pics of your drone gear

Was an RC hobbyist for years. First car was a Tamiya hotshot then the original RC 10. Started racing in 1988. 10th electic, 10th nitro, 1/8 nitro, and electric. Both buggy and truggy. 10th short course. Even on road. I dont even want to know the money spent on it. Still have a couple oh heli in electric and nitro. Quiet the rabbit hole for sure
