I know the owner of the Hustler molds and I spoke with him earlier today. I may consider making a small run of Hustler bodies (as of now 5 top and 5 bottom) because I can build them into racers. I would mold them in all black as of now. Is anyone else interested in Hustler shells?
CORRECTION: THE HUSTLER 950 LOWER BODY WILL ACCEPT UP TO 25" TIRES.

What Hustler model tubs are you going to make? 900, 950 ,or 980? Whats the price for the upper and lower tubs going to cost? What are the tubs made of?
I don't know the difference between the 900 and 950, but it's the latest body. I'm trying to decide if I want to make the 950 tub for 21" tires or 980 tub for 26" tires. i want to make a racer but i know the 980 is unstoppable in mud. bodies would be HDPE plastic, constructed just like original, but would be black. Not exactly sure about price but in the neighborhood of $250-300 per upper or lower body before shipping...

I would only want the 980 Bigfoot style tub. This would be the regular style980 tub, not the extra deep tub. For the price of $250-300 per upper and lower tub, count me in.I,ll take a black one.
cool. i know richard clark has NOS ones if you wanted the original color...but idk how much he charges. do all the 980 bodies accept 26" tires? and whats the difference between the 900 and 950?
i wish there was a way to not have the front seat molded in so i wouldn't have to have it cut out, but that's ok too i guess...

Yes,, the 980,s will all take a 26 inch tire , and even a 27 inch tire on the extra deep tub 980,s. With the 900 you are limited to a 22 inch tire ,and the 950 will take up to a 25 inch tire.
so essentially there are 4 different lower bodies...wow i thought there were was only 1 small and 1 large. i think the bigfoot body will be good enough for the large tires. it would be nice to get some 950 bodies made too...
I would be interested in a new body as well.

I would be interested in a lower tub for a 980 hustler, black is fine.
I don't want to go fast, I just want to go anywhere.
