Are you wanting them for a standard Kyosho body or a custom body? I have made a few for customs from plastic stock. There are some threads in custom bodies on those.

Hi there Techno said to contact you guys for some body clips. I am using 1:25 scale models for bodies. I am having to extend the wheel base but now need some body clips that will work. The bodies that I am currently working on are the following. Amt 1950 Chevy pickup, AMT 1974 Cuda, AMT 1949 Mercury Street rod, and last but not least a 1973 Dodge Charger. The cuda and the truck I know for sure are pretty close fits similar to the mini z bodies.

Hey Techno I sent an email to the shop aswell.

I posted how I made my own in this thread. The plates that fit inside adds some stiffness to the model car bodies, which is nice if you bang them off walls. I usualy like to drill into the side plates and set the T bar into it, and then back it with the gussets. This method can work for pickup trucks to attach the bed to the cab as well. The nose clip is trickier to do, mainly because every model is different.

Your '50 Chevy look's kinda complicated from the shape of the body.

the body is actually nice and close to the car I haven't had the time for the side mounts yet the front clip will sit right into the bumper and spaces it all out nice..the box sits right on top of the motor to give it that little bit of lift in the rear.
