Ideal for…
This body kit is designed for various types of enthusiasts:
- The club racer who needs to replace the body after an accident on track without purchasing the complete car.

- The collector who wishes to have a white unit as a workpiece or to display alongside the decorated version.
Painting and Decoration Tips
Upon receiving the white body, you have complete creative freedom. Before painting, we recommend cleaning the piece with warm water and a little neutral soap to remove any release agent residues. For painting, reference paints such as Tamiya, Vallejo, or Kaleido offer excellent adhesion on slot car body materials. A compatible primer base ensures an even base coat and enhances the durability of the finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which chassis is this body kit compatible with?
It is specifically designed for the chassis of the Thunderslot McLaren Elva Can Am. We have not verified compatibility with chassis from other brands, so we recommend using it with the original base of the same reference.
Does it include any additional components besides the body?
The available information indicates that this is the body kit only. If you have questions about whether it includes additional parts (spoilers, mirrors, etc.), please consult us before placing your order.
Can I use water decals on this body?
Yes. Water decals adhere well to a surface that has been previously painted and varnished with a satin or gloss finish. A final protective varnish layer will secure the decals and provide durability.
Is it valid for competition in open car categories?
As it is an original Thunderslot factory body, it is valid in any category that allows the use of this model. Please check your championship regulations to confirm its acceptance.
