Key Features

• Clear Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate, a material chosen specifically for its clarity, durability and ease of painting. This transparent material allows you to apply multiple paint layers and create depth in your design, and it resists cracking and damage during crashes and handling.
• Fully Trimmed with Pre-Drilled Holes — The body arrives completely trimmed to shape with all mounting holes already drilled in the correct positions. This saves you time and effort during assembly and ensures perfect fitment to your Drag Slash chassis without any guesswork or additional cutting required.
• Protective Overspray Film Applied — A protective film is pre-applied to the body to guard against overspray damage during the painting process. This is an excellent feature that protects areas you don't want painted, making the job easier and more professional-looking, even for beginners attempting their first RC body painting project.
• Window Masking Included — Professional-grade window masks are included in the package, allowing you to mask off the windows cleanly before painting. This ensures crisp, professional-looking results around the windows and prevents paint from getting into areas where it shouldn't be, which is essential for achieving that authentic look.
• Authentic Chevrolet C10 Styling — This body captures the classic lines and proportions of the iconic Chevrolet C10 truck, one of the most recognisable vehicles in American automotive history. The proportions are accurate to the 1/10 scale Drag Slash platform, delivering authentic truck styling that stands out on any RC track or bashing ground.
• Decals Included — The package comes with a decal sheet, giving you additional customisation options to add authentic branding, graphics or personal touches to your finished body. These decals can be applied before or after clear-coating, depending on your preferred painting technique.
• 327mm Wheelbase Design — The body is engineered for the specific 327mm (12.87 inch) wheelbase of the Drag Slash platform, ensuring perfect proportions and optimal weight distribution. This dimension is critical for both the visual appearance and the handling characteristics of your RC car.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Chevrolet C10 body is engineered from polycarbonate, one of the finest materials available for RC car bodyshells. This material offers an excellent balance between durability, flexibility and ease of painting. Polycarbonate bodies can flex slightly during impacts, which helps absorb energy and prevents cracking — a significant advantage over more rigid materials. The body arrives completely finished and ready for painting, with a wheelbase of 327mm (12.87 inches) that matches the Drag Slash platform perfectly. The clear finish means that when you apply your chosen Traxxas ProGraphix paint colours, the finish will be vibrant and professional-looking. The pre-applied overspray film protects the body during painting, whilst the pre-drilled mounting holes ensure that installation is straightforward and that fitment is precise. The body material has been tested extensively to ensure it can withstand the stresses of RC driving, including hard landings, slides and the occasional bash. Unlike ready-to-run RC cars that come pre-painted, this body offers the flexibility to create exactly the look you want, whether that's a factory-accurate paint scheme, a wild custom design, or something completely unique.
