JConcepts SCX24 ’79 Ford Courier | ’90 Chevy S10 bodies

JConcepts has released two new bodies for the popular Axial SCX24 1:24 Crawler, the 1990 Chevy S10 crawler body and 1979 Ford Courier. A classic in the fleet of General Motors products, with the Chevy S10 JConcepts adapted the mid-sized truck to fit the crawler vehicle with sculpted features throughout. The single cab body sits on top of the square body shape and flexes its muscles as one of the meanest little trucks during the 1990 period. The pre-cut body sports wheel well openings set for 52-57mm tires but can be user trimmed to allow more clearance as vehicle articulation picks up. With the Courier, laying out the mid-sized truck on the smallest platform in crawling was a different task to get the 1:24 scale body looks proportionate on these fun little vehicles. Trucks such as the Axial SCX24 with 5.20” WB now has a lid that looks tough with a heavy retro vibe. JConcepts has applied plenty of touches to the Courier such as a rigid side body panels, extruded and arched wheel wells with blended rocker panels. The clear and pre-cut body shells include a decal sheet, window mask for easy painting, and are covered with overspray film direct from the factory.
