Advice R/C Mk2 Escort 1/10

[Rsdop]

I really fancy building a radio controlled replica of my Mk2 Escort. I have seen the 1/10 body shells for sale but unsure on a suitable chassis to build it on. Wheelbase needs to be 255-260mm and it needs to be RWD. I used to race cars many years ago but not looked into them for years. Ideally I'd like a kit to build rather than a ready to run. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I´ve seen a few examples of this build, for example:

This is the Rally Legends body:

And I think it fits on a "normal" Tamiya touring chassis such as TT-01, TA-01/02, TL-01. These are all easy to convert to rear wheel drive.

Thanks, that builds just the kind of thing I'm looking for
Ive ordered a couple of clear body's of eBay and it says they fit Tamiya so looks like that's the way to go. Is converting to RWD as simple as removing a diff and driveshaft?

Thanks for the replies, think il try 4WD then maybe with the drift tyres. That Pan thingy looks a beast but probably a bit too good for my needs! Would like to use it on dirt too so going to go with a Tamiya TT-02.
