hi,new to the forum.anybody know what body this is and what company it was made by?

Hey Mike and welcome, a little more information would be helpful What scale? are any of the decals original (what do they say if so) did this come on a chassis and if it did do you know what brand the chassis is? cheers andy....

decals and wing were added by me.i bought it from a carboot a few years ago on an ff02 chassis which i converted to an m03 to use with a rover mini shell.its definitely a 1/10th shell but i cant find another matching body anywhere,its not a subaru impreza hatchback,doesnt seem to be a mazda,or old honda civic.nothing on this shell matches any car found so far.im guessing its a tamiya because my tamiya bmw mini and my tamiya audi a4 dtm had mirrors identical to the ones on this car although they could of just been sourced from tamiya but the shell could still be from a different manufacturer.i did search one by one through hpi racing shells last night and its definitely not made by them.the bloke i bought it of was very vague when it came to descriptions about about the car but as i said ....it was bought at a carboot

thanks for the tip about picture size andy

Ok I'm going with Toyota Corolla WRC (it's the moulded head lights) Although Tamiya do make a version (so do a lot of others) I can't say that this is Tamiya. I don't think the wing on it is original and the window mount for the wing is unique, hope this helps

the wing was added by me.looking to get rid of it because it in a right mess but make a new,better looking version.judging by what i just found on ebay,youre right

while i remember....the bit with the wing on in the picture you found for me mounts on a flat bit as you can see in my ebay link and underneith my wing.now i know what im after,has anyone got one of these that isnt going to cost me more than the average price of a new shell???
