Overview
The Traxxas Body, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete (blue) (painted, decals applied) is a stunning pre-painted polycarbonate bodyshell designed for the 1/10 scale 4-Tec 3.0 chassis. This is the perfect replacement or upgrade body for serious RC car enthusiasts in the UK looking to refresh their on-road racer with authentic Chevrolet styling. Whether you're a competitive racer, a weekend basher, or someone building their first high-performance RC car, this professionally painted body brings genuine automotive design to your 1/10 scale model.
What sets this Corvette Stingray body apart is that it arrives completely ready to install straight out of the box. Unlike clear body kits that require you to paint and design your own livery, this ready-to-run RC body shell comes fully painted in a striking blue colour with decals already applied, saving you hours of preparation time. The attention to detail is exceptional—this isn't just a basic shell, but a fully equipped body package that includes all the small components that make a complete, finished-looking RC car.
For buyers searching for a premium on-road RC car body UK retailers can trust, Traxxas is a recognised leader in RC technology and design. The Corvette Stingray body perfectly captures the iconic supercar's aggressive stance and aerodynamic lines, making your 4-Tec 3.0 the envy of the track or car park. The polycarbonate construction ensures durability whilst maintaining the lightweight properties essential for high-speed performance.
Key Features
- Complete pre-painted body with decals applied — This body arrives fully finished in a professional blue colour with all decals already installed, eliminating the need for additional painting, design work, or decal application. You can mount it and drive immediately, making this ideal for those who want instant results without the time investment of body painting.
- Authentic Chevrolet Corvette Stingray design — The bodyshell faithfully reproduces the distinctive styling of the real Chevrolet Corvette Stingray supercar, including the characteristic curves, proportions, and aggressive front end. This authentic design makes your RC car instantly recognisable and visually stunning on the track.
- Includes side mirrors and spoiler — The body package comes complete with molded side mirrors and a rear spoiler, adding depth and realism to the model. These aerodynamic components aren't just cosmetic—they enhance the visual authenticity of the Corvette Stingray's race-inspired design.
- Grilles and vents included — Detailed grille inserts and ventilation details come as part of the package, adding further authenticity and visual interest to the bodyshell. These small details contribute significantly to the overall finished appearance of your RC car.
- Clipless mounting system with hardware — The body uses Traxxas's innovative clipless latching system, allowing for quick, tool-free body removal and installation. The mounting hardware is included and pre-fitted, so you can get your car on the track without delays. This system is significantly faster than traditional screw-down body mounts.
- Polycarbonate construction — The bodyshell is manufactured from tough polycarbonate material, which provides excellent impact resistance whilst remaining lightweight. This material is the industry standard for RC bodies because it absorbs impacts without cracking and allows light to pass through, maintaining the paint finish's visual depth.
- Decal sheet included — In addition to the decals already applied to the body, you receive additional decal sheets, giving you customisation options if you want to modify the appearance further or repair any wear over time.
- Compatible with 4-Tec 3.0 platform — This body is specifically designed for the Traxxas 4-Tec 3.0 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray chassis, ensuring perfect fitment and alignment. It's compatible with both the black and silver versions of the 4-Tec 3.0 Corvette Stingray chassis available in the UK market.
- Fully trimmed and ready to mount — Unlike raw body kits that require extensive preparation, this shell comes fully trimmed with all necessary cutouts for windows, lights, and components. The pre-applied overspray film protects the paint during shipping and handling, so your body arrives in pristine condition.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Chevrolet Corvette Stingray body is engineered from premium polycarbonate material selected specifically for its balance of durability, weight, and optical clarity. At 1/10 scale, this bodyshell is dimensionally precise to fit the 4-Tec 3.0 chassis platform perfectly, ensuring that the body lines flow correctly and the proportions match the real vehicle. The polycarbonate construction is significantly more durable than traditional painted shells, resisting cracks and impacts that would damage lesser materials. The pre-painted blue finish is applied using professional-grade automotive-style paint, providing a deep, lustrous colour that catches light beautifully whether you're racing indoors under fluorescent lights or enjoying outdoor track sessions. The included decals are precision-applied at the factory, ensuring perfect alignment and professional presentation. The clipless mounting system represents a significant engineering advantage over traditional screw-based body mounts—it allows drivers to remove and refit the body in seconds, which is invaluable during practice sessions, repairs, or when switching between different body designs on the same chassis. The side mirrors, spoiler, grilles, and vents are integrally molded as part of the bodyshell, meaning there are no separate plastic pieces to glue on, reducing assembly time and eliminating potential failure points. The pre-applied overspray film protects the finished paint during manufacturing, packaging, and shipping, meaning you receive the body in perfect showroom condition. This attention to quality and detail is what makes Traxxas bodies the preferred choice for serious RC enthusiasts throughout the UK and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this a complete ready-to-run RC car body or does it require assembly? — This is a pre-painted complete bodyshell that requires no painting or decal work. However, it is a body only—you'll need a 4-Tec 3.0 chassis to mount it on. The body itself arrives fully assembled and ready to install on your chassis using the included clipless mounting system.
- What chassis models are compatible with the Traxxas Corvette Stingray body? — This body is specifically designed for the Traxxas 4-Tec 3.0 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray platform. It is compatible with both the black version (TRX93054-4-BLK) and the silver version (TRX93054-4-SLVR) of the 4-Tec 3.0 chassis. The 4-Tec 3.0 is Traxxas's premium 1/10 scale on-road racing platform.
- How does the clipless mounting system work and what are the advantages? — The clipless mounting system uses spring-loaded latches that grip the body without requiring screws or tools. Simply position the body onto the chassis and press down firmly—the latches automatically engage. To remove the body, you simply push in the release points and lift off. This system is significantly faster than traditional screw mounts, allowing you to remove and refit your body in seconds. This is particularly useful during track days when you need quick access to the chassis for adjustments or repairs.
- Does this body come with overspray film protection, and should I remove it? — Yes, the body arrives with pre-applied overspray film applied to protect the painted finish during manufacturing and shipping. You should carefully peel away this film before mounting the body on your chassis to reveal the finished paint underneath. This film ensures your body arrives in perfect condition.
- What makes polycarbonate bodyshells better than other materials? — Polycarbonate is the industry-standard material for RC bodyshells because it offers superior impact resistance compared to painted plastic shells. When you crash or hit a barrier, polycarbonate flexes and absorbs the impact rather than cracking. It's also optically clear, meaning paint colours appear deeper and more vibrant. The material is lightweight, which is critical for on-road performance, and it's durable enough to withstand countless racing sessions and minor impacts.
- Can I paint over the existing paint if I want a different colour? — The body arrives fully painted with a professional finish, but if you wish to customize the colour, you can respray it. However, you would need to remove the existing decals first and prepare the surface appropriately. Most users are satisfied with the factory finish, which is applied to professional standards.
- Is this bodyshell suitable for high-speed on-road racing? — Absolutely. The Corvette Stingray body is designed specifically for the 4-Tec 3.0 on-road racing platform, which is capable of high speeds. The streamlined design reduces aerodynamic drag, and the precise fitment ensures the body remains stable at speed. This body is suitable for both casual track sessions and competitive racing in the UK.
- How does the pre-painted finish compare to custom painting my own body? — The factory finish on Traxxas pre-painted bodies is applied using professional automotive-grade techniques and paint systems. The colour depth, gloss finish, and durability are equivalent to or superior to most home-applied finishes. Unless you have professional spray equipment and painting skills, the factory finish will likely be superior. The factory also ensures perfect decal alignment, which is difficult to achieve manually.
- What is the estimated delivery time for this product? — As this is a specialist RC component, delivery times may vary. RC Model Shop will provide specific delivery information at checkout. For urgent requirements, please contact the store directly to confirm stock status and expedited delivery options.
