JConcepts Finnisher Kraton BLX body shell

Made for Arrma’s Kraton BLX truck is an exclusive Finnisher design body from JConcepts. The new lid for the Kraton BLX polishes off an already beastly truck. The Finnisher is a proven winner on the race track, but its appeal on and off the racing line makes it perfect for the ultimate speed-run and basher vehicle. The body incorporates pre-dimpled locations for one of the quickest bashers on the circuit. The slight cab forward, raked windshield and aggressive stance highlight a performance oriented core. A wide front hood scoop allows plenty of clearance for the unique Kraton shock geometry. The body incorporates a large centre fin which begins on the roof line and finishes just past the half-way point on the bed. Extended front chin spoiler, headlight and grill protect the front-end from unwanted up-drafts during flight while the supplied decals stand-out like an 18 wheeler. The Finnisher has a built-in air escape passage on the roof which allows the customer to fine-tune the body for maximum outdoor performance. The new body includes champion rear name plates which provide additional high-speed stability and improved positioning of the rear bed rails to strengthen the assembly. Overall handling has been improved by balancing the bias between the cab location and rear wing placement which control the majority of the aero affects of the aggressively styled body. The body is an exclusive design for Horizon Hobby and available only through Horizon Hobby Distributors and jconcepts.net.

JConcepts 1967 Chevy Chevelle body shell

JConcepts have introduced their new 1967 Chevy Chevelle for custom SCT vehicles. As the street eliminator class heats up on the circuit, JConcepts has faithfully recreated the icon in full detail. Like all vehicles of this generation, the imagination was amazing in the design department, swooping lines, hard edges and statement making trim packages. The corners of the front-end are pointed and wedge down to point the driver in the correct direction. The hood-scoop is planted along the centre-line of the vehicle bringing that drag-strip inspiration. The roof and coverage of the Chevelle is large and in charge, plenty of head-room for the scale drivers and accessories fans can deliver. One of the staples of the 1967 is the long rear deck lid and large wraparound taillamps with standard backup light mock-ups. Each body also includes the rear wing option to finalise the street eliminator look. The lower rear wing support is mounted carefully to the trunk using double sided tape or shoe goo. The upper wing section sets down and provides the look and finishing touch to the 1967 classic. The body measures a 13”/330mm wheelbase and the inside dimensions of the body are 10.75”/273mm wide front and 11”/279mm rear. The body is built for a 2WD SCT wheelbase length and narrowed to more resemble the original full-scale counterpart and it comes including a detailed decal sheet.
