PRM 1/10 Chevy Camaro Z/28 Clear Body: 190mm Touring Car G-PRM1544-30

Overview

The PROTOform 1/10 Chevy Camaro Z/28 Clear Body is an officially-licensed, factory-painted representation of Chevrolet's iconic performance machine, engineered specifically for 190mm touring car platforms. This is the ultimate choice for serious RC racers in the UK who demand authentic scale detail combined with race-winning aerodynamics. Whether you're competing in USGT, Scale Spec racing, or simply want to elevate your RC car collection with a stunning, track-ready body, this Camaro Z/28 delivers both aesthetic excellence and functional performance enhancement.

PROTOform's heritage in touring car racing is legendary, with countless IIC, National and Regional titles captured using their Camaro body platform. When Chevrolet reimagined the Camaro into the performance-first, track-ready Z/28, PROTOform recognised the perfect evolution for the 1/10 scale RC market. This ready-to-race body captures everything that makes the full-size Z/28 special—the lowered stance, aggressive front splitter, signature silver "Flow-tie" grill emblem and integrated decklid spoiler—all refined for one singular purpose: dominating the track lap after lap.

Unlike basic RC car bodies, this clear polycarbonate shell comes production-ready with professional-grade preparation tools included. The injection-moulded wing struts, comprehensive decal sheet, paint-then-peel overspray film and window masks mean you can take your 190mm touring car from bare chassis to race-ready in just four simple steps. This is the body chosen by competitive RC racers across the UK and beyond who refuse to compromise on authenticity or performance.

Key Features

• Officially-Licensed General Motors Design — This body is produced under official licence from General Motors, ensuring authentic proportions, trim details and branding that set it apart from generic alternatives. The legally-sanctioned design means you get the real Chevy Camaro Z/28 aesthetic, not an imitation, which matters to competitive racers who value authenticity and brand integrity.
• Enhanced Aerodynamic Engineering — Every body line has been analysed and refined specifically for racing performance on 190mm touring car platforms. The lowered stance, enlarged front splitter and integrated decklid spoiler aren't just for show—they're functional aerodynamic elements that improve downforce, stability and lap times on the track, giving you a genuine competitive advantage over standard bodies.
• Durable 0.030" Polycarbonate Construction — Manufactured from premium crystal clear polycarbonate at precisely 0.030" thickness, this body offers the ideal balance of impact resistance and lightweight performance. The material withstands the rigours of competitive racing whilst remaining light enough to optimise your chassis handling characteristics and acceleration.
• Injection-Moulded Wing Struts — Unlike cheaper glued or taped alternatives, the wing struts are injection-moulded as integral components, providing superior strength, consistency and durability. This ensures your rear wing stays perfectly aligned lap after lap, maintaining the aerodynamic benefits you've engineered into your setup.
• Dual-Trim Wing Design with Multiple Configurations — The included add-on rear wing features two different trim line options, allowing you to fine-tune your aerodynamic setup depending on track conditions, chassis configuration and racing class requirements. This flexibility means one body can be optimised for multiple applications.
• Paint-Then-Peel Overspray Film System — The innovative built-in overspray film protects your window areas and body during painting, then peels away cleanly to reveal perfectly masked windows and trim areas. This professional-grade masking system is typically only found on high-end bodies, saving you hours of careful masking work and ensuring pristine results.
• Comprehensive Window Masking Included — Pre-cut window masks are supplied in the box, eliminating the need for tape or tape-cutting, ensuring perfect paint lines around all window apertures and achieving that factory-finished appearance that catches judges' eyes at competition.
• Race-Inspired Extensive Decal Sheet — An comprehensive decal sheet featuring race-inspired graphics is included, allowing you to add professional detailing and personalisation to match your team colours, sponsor logos or personal preferences without requiring aftermarket decal purchases.
• Complete Wing Mounting Hardware — Four pieces of precision wing mounting hardware are included in the box, meaning you can mount the wing immediately upon completion without searching for compatible fasteners or spending extra on hardware upgrades.
• Made in the USA — This body is proudly manufactured in the United States, ensuring consistent quality control, rapid availability for UK RC enthusiasts, and supporting established manufacturing standards that serious racers trust.
• Exceptional Scale Detail — Every aspect of the design—from the distinctive grill emblem to the body side sculpting—captures the real-world Z/28 aesthetic at 1/10 scale, creating a visually stunning RC car that turns heads at the track whether you're a competitive racer or a scale enthusiast.

Technical Performance

The PROTOform Chevy Camaro Z/28 Clear Body represents the pinnacle of 1/10 scale touring car body engineering. With a length of 449mm (17.7 inches), width of 195mm (7.67 inches), height of 109mm (4.29 inches) and wheelbase of 258mm (10.2 inches), this body is specifically engineered to fit 190mm touring car platforms with precision.

This is not a basic body shell; this is precision race equipment refined through thousands of competitive racing hours across USGT and Scale Spec racing platforms. When combined with a properly tuned 190mm touring car chassis, suspension geometry and drivetrain, the Camaro Z/28 body will help you extract every tenth of a second from your lap times whilst looking absolutely stunning doing it.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What chassis does this Camaro Z/28 body fit? — This body is engineered specifically for 1/10 scale 190mm touring car platforms. Common compatible chassis include competitive touring car models from various manufacturers. Before purchasing, verify that your chassis wheelbase measures 190mm (approximately 7.5 inches) and confirm body compatibility with your specific chassis model.
• Is this body suitable for beginners or only experienced RC racers? — Whilst this is genuinely a professional-grade body developed for competitive racing, the painting and assembly process is straightforward enough for intermediate RC enthusiasts. The included overspray film and window masks actually make preparation easier than basic bodies. However, you should have basic experience with RC car assembly, painting polycarbonate, and chassis setup before attempting this body. If you're completely new to RC, start with a ready-to-run chassis and practice before investing in competition bodies.
• Does this body come painted or unpainted? — This is sold as a completely clear, unpainted polycarbonate shell. The product images showing painted examples are for display purposes only to showcase the design details. You must purchase paint, apply it yourself or commission a professional painter. The included paint-then-peel overspray film makes DIY painting significantly easier by protecting window areas automatically.
• What paint should I use on this polycarbonate body? — Specialised lexan or polycarbonate paint is essential—standard automotive or acrylic paints will not adhere properly or provide adequate durability. Popular RC body paints include Tamiya Lexan Spray Paint, Pactra Polycarbonate Paint and other hobby-grade products specifically formulated for plastic RC bodies. Always follow paint manufacturer instructions for proper application and curing.
• What makes the PROTOform Camaro Z/28 different from generic 190mm touring car bodies? — This body combines official General Motors licensing, aerodynamic development through competitive racing heritage, injection-moulded components (not glued or taped), professional-grade masking systems and exceptional scale detail. The lowered stance, enlarged splitter and integrated spoiler aren't cosmetic—they're functionally engineered aerodynamic elements tested through thousands of racing hours. PROTOform's racing pedigree with countless IIC, National and Regional titles distinguishes this from budget alternatives.
• How long does it take to prepare this body for installation? — The four-step preparation process (clean body, apply window mask, paint with overspray film protection, apply decals, mount struts and wing) typically requires 2-4 hours spread across several days if painting and drying times are included. The paint-then-peel system eliminates hours of traditional masking work, making this body significantly faster to prepare than basic shells.
• Does this body include the wing and is the wing mandatory for racing? — Yes, the add-on rear wing with dual trim lines and mounting hardware is included in the box. Whether the wing is mandatory depends on your specific racing class rules. In competition touring car racing, body wings may be optional, restricted or mandatory depending on the series. Check your racing class regulations before finalising your setup.
• Can I use this body on a different wheelbase chassis? — No, this body is specifically engineered for 190mm (10.2 inch) wheelbase touring cars. Using it on shorter or longer wheelbase platforms will result in proportionally incorrect appearance and potential fitment issues. Always match body wheelbase to chassis wheelbase for proper handling and aesthetics.
• Is this body road-legal or just for off-road RC racing? — This is a racing touring car body designed for on-road track competition and scale racing events. It is not designed for extreme bashing or off-road use, which would damage the polycarbonate and defeat the aerodynamic design. This is precision race equipment, not a recreational basher body.
