Ok so I just ordered a Pro-Pulse off eBay,

http://cgi.ebay.com/Pro-Pulse-Pro-T100- ... 35a600287c

But now I need help finding a body.. I seen a picture of a mini lst with a F-150 body on it so I know theres got to be a 1:18 F-150 body out there somewhere but I cant find the damn thing...

Anyone know who makes a 1:18 f-150 body?

Yeah, IDK where you're going to find one, have you considered a short course body? The Vendetta SC would probably work.

Yeah I found 2 great looking bodies but nothing in the 1:18 scale.. Tamiya made a 92-96 F150 body style sc truck the would have been amazing but it was 1:10 scale then JConcepts has a body for the slash called Gladiator that was modeled after the new F150 Raptor

HPI used to make a dodge ram body for the micro rs4 but I cant seem to find it.

Other bodies that will fit the pro pulse are the mini desert truck body

Possibly these as well: :-) (Dont quote me on fit, you will need to do the research to make sure)

If it fits the associated 18t it will fit the pro pulse

I know these arent exactly what you are looking for but it does show some of the options out there.

good luck,

If you want a hardbody, try hitting your local crappy 'Dollar Store' type places. They sometimes have weird scale cheapy RCs to donate a body

I thought about that but im waiting to actually get the truck because right now im not really sure on about what size the body is.. and it would only be a show body I doubt the hard plastic would hold up well even on a 1:18 scale...

It reminds me of when I first got into RC back in 2005 or 2006 it was christmas and my brother in law had got a new Savage and my nephew (his son) had got a big red new bright jeep.. Well they were out playing with them he was running the savage up and down the street and told my nephew to play with his in the yard.. well needless to say my nephew didnt listen he jumped the jeep off the curb and went straight in the street right into the path of the savage.. The savage hit the jeep at nearly full speed it exploded there was little peices of jeep everywhere.. the savage broke a front wheel and the exhaust pipe off but the body wasnt damaged at all..

I think even one wrong jump would probably break a hard body I want somthing i can actually bash with.. but its starting to look like ill have to take what I can get
