JConcepts Ford Atlas scale bodyshell

JConcepts Ford Atlas scale bodyshell

Made for the Vaterra Ascender as well as Axial 1.9″ trucks is the new JConcepts Ford Atlas trail bodyshell. The look of the Atlas is unmistakable contemporary Built Ford Tough, with bulging wheel arches, a drop-down beltline at the front doors, and some of the biggest snarling grille nostrils ever seen on an F-150. The Atlas body is specifically built for the Vaterra and Axial 12-12.3″ wheelbase chassis, providing even more versatility to the platforms. Fitting bumper to bumper, the body has all the possible detail of its full-scale counterpart starting behind that oversized grille. Split headlight design with corner reveal turn signal points the Atlas in the right direction while edgy hood detail bulks around the wide-body fenders to provide plenty of clearance for an assortment of large 1.9″ tires. The extra cab look is defined by the recessed windows and the roof has a unique center channel and extruded touches emulating the roof-carrying system shown on the prototype Atlas vehicle.
