I'm gonna kick myself for saying this but I saw a couple on eebay.

Now I'm gonna lose 'em both!

Very interesting ... and very familiar.

Do you know - did Holeshot Painting do the custom paint work?

I did a search on yahoo. I could only find slot car motors by neco for the bigger scales. Anyone else have an idea?

It's so shinny, it almost looks like a lexan body.

These are factory??
They have what looks suspiciously like Tyco wheels to me. Also, the details look kind of "thick". Are you sure it's not just a home-made bod?


Cheers..

I don't understand what the fuss is all about. If it's the paint job that is commanding the big price tag you can get a top notch paint shop like Holeshot to paint up any body you want. Check out the pages of custom NASCAR hardbodies on this site:

It is likely home-made but the guy making them trades as NECO.

I'm pretty sure the guy on ebbay plans to sell unpainted bodies, then we will see if the price is more reasonable...

I contated somone who won ones of these bodies, this is what he had to say:

''NECO body is hand made resin looks ok BUT not as good as TYCO or LIFE LIKE factory bodies i bought mine to get the TONY STEWERT paint job it weights about the same as a TYCO BODY MAIN ADVANTAGE IS IT FITS 440-X2 NARROW CHASSIS AND THEY MAY HAVE MODELS NO ONE ELSE MAKES ALWAYS GLAD TO HELP ANY WAY I CAN THANKS''

Sorry for the caps, they are not mine!!

Those bodies were painted by Holeshot, except for the clearcoat. Holeshot can paint you any Tomy Stewart body, any year, any theme, on your choice of body. Of course you'll have to wait a little and won't be able to get it on E-Bay this week.

I did think the Dodge looked good, but I'm not really up with Nascar enough so it could just be a LL clone!
