I have a WCM nascar im looking to mount a lumina body I got, I'm ready for paint but want to see how you guys mount your bodies. If you have pics or can give me ideas would be great, the chassis I'm mounting this on has never had anything but Velcro holding the Buick body on but never actually ran the car, no motor had ever been on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Velcro works great. But what I found works best are the little plastic clips with a flat back, you remove the little adhesive pad it comes with and then glue or epoxy the back to the body and clip it to the chassis bars. Unfortunately I do not know where to find these because the ones I had I found in my Dad's garage but I think they are for cable management.

Ok I did a quick google search and found this

this is almost exactly what I had.
The google search terms I used was "cable management clips"

Also I would put some duct tape, electrical tape or foam around where you are putting the clips to help tighten them up and stop vibration and rattling.
