The wheel wells will not sit well on a buggy chassis. Its based on a truggy chassis, though it looks slightly longer. The rear bulkhead looked a little different than the normal setup.
It will however fit on a truggy chassis that has buggy arms and tires. Which is what the mutant I'm building will use.
I like the way it looks. I've always liked cars that look closer to scale, but haven't found anything durable really. With this body I can complete the mutant and have trophy truck in my collection.
Personally, I am not bothered in the least by the fact that its not "innovative". Why try to reinvent the wheel for what essentially has no competative class, or market yet. You can't race it with the truggies, and you can't race it with the buggies.
Also, the 8th scale platform for buggies/truggies is already a stout setup that offers a good trade off of handling vs durability, and ground clearance.
