look for 1/64 scale slot car sets that have Evo's in them, or see if your LHS has slot cars and if they could order a body for you.

The nearest hobbyshop dosent have them, but they said that they would order a different brand if I could name one so please give me a brand that sells 1/64 scale slot car evos.

Eddy, I don't even know if that scale would work on your zipzap as far as wheel base. you need to find out the wheel base on a 1:64 slot car and make sure it's the same as your ZZ. If it's a ZZSE then you most likely won't be able to do it with that scale. Another source is toy car bodies. If you go to the target or ToysRUs they usually have packs of cars by different toy manufacturers like Mitso or Ebro, or Newbright. Check those out too and see if you can find something that will fit. bring with you a profile of your chassis on paper so that you can hold it up to the different toys and see if the wheel wells fit the wheels on your drawing.
