I noticed that too, Tower Hobbies has made alot of mistakes including the measurement of the MBX in length. It is not 380mm but more like 480mm. It should come with a body, what it seems is Tower Hobbies made an option to buy the kit AND an engine together so the kit should come with the body. My kit did.
Neither of you actually BOUGHT the car from Tower Hobbies, so neither of you actually know, now do you. It seems that the 80% kit w/ engine is a Tower Hobbies package. How do you KNOW it comes with one?
Saying that it does come with one becaue you think it ought to isn't particularly helpful.
