Re: s10 blazer/jimmy model?

If you're looking for a 1/10 scale, the closest you will find is a Trailblazer body from Proline. I think it is discontinued, but readily available, and is an excellent body. There used to be a 80s S-Blazer from Parma, but I think it's very hard to find now.

If you want a Losi 1/25 scale Micro Crawler, Lindberg made a 1/20 scale kit, I believe both in Blazer and Jimmy 4 door versions. It looks like it has been discontinued, but they are still fairly common. You might have to lengthen the Losi 1/25 rock crawler to fit, but it's very easy.

AMT/Ertl did a 1/25 95 Snap Fit 4 door Blazer. It as well has been discontinued, but can be found on eBay. It would be a nice body for the Losi crawler. They also did annuals of a 2 door Blazer from 95-97. Excellent kits, and if you wanted a Jimmy, there is a Sonoma kit available that you could swap the grill from. The wheelbase might be a little short for the Losi, being a 2 door.

I use the AMT Sonoma body on my Losi crawler, and I had to lengthen the wheelbase about 1/4" to fit right. I also run the Trailblazer body on a 1/10 Axial SCX 10
