I stopped by a hobby shop today and saw these... had to share.

I like them both. I should see if I could find a 67-72 truck body for my old RC car.

Nice! That’s the first suburban I’ve seen. This is a bit old school but I’ve got a 72 truck body for my tmaxx. I’ve had that particular body for every bit of 15 years.

Found 'em on ebay... $3-400

I really like the body lines on the green RC truck - it's either nicer than the real truck or there's something about the size that allows for an uncommon focal length or something? Looks cool, anyway!

There have been 67-72 bodied RCs for a while but these kick the quality up a notch. Jethro custom built a Suburban and has some great video footage here in this forum.

Burb is cool, but looks like it has a slight chop.

**special-K** · 12-30-2018, 10:51 AM

Yes it does. And the back is too steep. But sure is a cool looking toy! I posted a thread on them with a few videos.

There is also a K/10 they make:

I like the wheels on the K10... even has a camper for Jocko

Thanks for posting the videos!
