I doubt you will have to buy a package deal like that once they com out... These will most likely be in walmart.

No, It is the Muscle Machines body and wheels with the Zip chassis.

really
I have never seen that one before or seen it done
what do you have to do to the muscle machine body to make it fit
I want to put one on my 4x4 which zip bodies fit perfectly on
do all the bodies fit or just some

You have to do a lot of dremeling to the front and rear as well as the fenders. The Camaro is the only body I have seen so far that mounts the way I did. The other bodies don't have enough surface area in the front and rear after removing them from their existing chassis. The car just kinda press fits over the existing tabs. I stick a piece of rubber under that to hold it in. With the metal body, you can't bend it over onto the tabs like Bits and Zips. Here is a pic where I dremeled.

Here are the wheels mounted to the existing axle and knuckles. You do have to remove the PCB cover. I also had to cut away some of the chassis/PCB compartment to make clearance for the rear tires.

cool
when I did the mm wheels on my bit I followed the instructions on costom bit bodies site so I did not have to do anything to the chasse but they stick out too far for my liking the front wheels I did what you did though

I think the wheels sit just about right. I think it gives it a tough look how far they stick out.
