Coming from JConcepts is their new 2014 Chevy 1500 MT single cab monster truck body shell. Designed for 12” to 12.5” trucks the shell offers the unmistakable Chevy single cab design with the exterior design blends a strong and study look while refining the details reserved for modern aesthetics. The muscle was chiseled into the tyre openings while the aerodynamics remain for the truck to hold its own in a straight-line. A twin-port grille, full-width bumper and dual power hump hood create a strong presence, which is carried through in sculpted body sides and fender flares. The grille area has not been compromised and accepts the detailed JConcepts decal sheet and includes two different grille and headlight options. The front fascia is strong and while the large tire openings swoop through, the bumper has recessed areas for side-marker lights and air inlet. The tailgate is rigid in appearance with a slight undercut that is so common on the Chevrolet trucks. The 2014 Silverado’s bed features a slight recess which painters can leave clear or detail to their specification on any build. No race truck would be complete without a bobbed rear bedside to give racers extra clearance and an unmistakable visual rake. Each package includes window mask, new 2014 generation Chevy Silverado specific decal sheet and clear polycarbonate body.
