these chassis:

 

HC1132 _ 1/32 Cheetah 11 Chassis Two-Piece Pan
JK32DD _ 1/32 Direct Drive Chassis Kit
JKX321 _ 1/32 Cheetah 11 Chassis w 1-Piece Pan, Kit
 
I see painted ones on the JK site and they are WAY out of my budget.  I know I can buy a clear and paint but I am short on time (and talent) before our next season.

You may want to look into both Hi-Speed and Red Fox as they have pre-painted 1/32nd scale bodies listed. 

 

If your local shop has an account with ERI, inquire about Hi-Speed part number #HSPPBRF375 which is a prepainted Red Fox Audi R10. That ought to suit your needs to a tee.

If your local shop ...

 

Sadly, that is why I am asking here.  St Louis has no store.  We have a few hobby shops that sell Carrera, Scalextric, and other Europlastic cars but that is it.

 

Thanks for the part # and source.  hunt begins!

What JK page were you on?  Clear: 6.50; Painted w/numbers: 15.50; Flame painted: 18.50; Painted w/stickers 28.50; screen printed rental (.020"): 15.50.

 

Most basic painted bodies are about $20 and up.  Hardware store aerosol lacquer or plasticote on a clear shell is easy.

Reach out to Bill Pinch at The Raceway in Melbourne, FL.

 

Bill paints bodies for a variety of companies and also does custom work for racers at very reasonable prices.
