JConcepts ’78 Chevy & ’95 Ford Tucked bodies
JConcepts has release two ‘Tucked’ bodies intended for 1:10 RC crawlers, the 1978 Chevy K10 and the 1995 Ford F-150. Designed by JConcepts, the Tucked body layout creates more tire space, less overhang. Fitting the Traxxas TRX-4 Sport, Enduro, Axial 12.3″ wheelbase, on the Chevy the identifiable design detail of the retro piece is the center bulged section that runs the length of the shell. A vertical signal marker can be added thanks to the included and pre-trimmed JConcepts decal sheet. Extending off the center structure of the body, the blend flows nicely into the cab with large windows which are recessed for increased realism. The large front windshield produces a lot of scale visibility to look forward to the Tucked front nose for better handling characteristics. On the Ford, the design began by emulating body lines and language from various photos around the world and real world vehicles. Body panels feature slight curvature, upper notch familiar with early generation Ford trucks, and edged and kicked rocker panel at the bottom.
