JConcepts 2012 Chevy Silverado for Traxxas Rustler

JConcepts introduces the 2012 Chevy Silverado 1500 body for the Traxxas Rustler. Starting with its low-profile design, beefy fenders and noteworthy Silverado appearance, the 1500 body is inspired by the looks of a class leading full-size pick-up, loaded with performance features. Fitting directly on the popular Traxxas Rustler line of vehicles, the Chevy 1500 is just what you have been looking for. The JConcepts body is a racer starting with the slammed look and blended 1:1 inspired appearance. The Chevy 1500 pops out as a high-voltage performer and packs in the detailed design you have come to expect from JConcepts. Extruded front and rear fender flares for maximum tire and linkage clearance include a slight hood-scoop raised portion to bulk up the front-end. The rear bed has built-in clearance for the Rustler shock tower and shocks to help maintain that sleek appearance. The body comes included with a spoiler on the back of the body mold which can be trimmed and detailed to drop right on the rear and secured with 2 included JConcepts button head screws.
