Description
JConcepts has teamed up with BIGFOOT 4×4 to offer officially licensed decal sets to go along with branded body shells. The included body shell, a 1993 Ford F-250 with visor and racerback can be dressed as the iconic truck. With major help from the included decal sheet and massive wrap, the Tribute Wheels body is a thing of beauty once it is carefully prepped and decaled. Tribute Wheels BIGFOOT is the result of JConcepts always looking through the lineage to add staple designs to an already bolstered line-up. Back in 2020, the team unveiled this shell design with a wild look and to the pleasure of many RC monster truck fans, now, they were able to re-create a lot of their favorite vehicles.
The aeronose design of the Ford truck body represents everything that is great about the 1990's. Included in the package is a racerback which can be trimmed and mounted to the back of the cab, while the visor can also be fitted and equipped in the same manner.
The cab of the Ford is all brute force, extended front nose with era correct body lines, this truck means business. Long rear bed, slightly recessed bed area can either be painted to match or left clear for a scale fiberglass look and affect. Once the finishing, trimming, and accessories are added, it's easy to see how Tribute Wheels is one of the most feared monster trucks of all-time. Large wheel wells with room for monster truck racing tires, grille, headlight, and smooth bumper accoutrements provide a great look, fit, and finish. The beauty of the JConcepts shell is that it works well on several solid axle trucks on the market but is also sized with a wheelbase fitting trucks up to 13" long.
The retro racer, single cab, allows ample room to mount the body on an LMT or Axial SMT10 and still packs a mean punch mounted on custom "shafty" and clod buster-based rigs. Each package includes window mask, 1993 Ford specific decal sheet, Tribute Wheels BIGFOOT pre-trimmed decals and wrap along with the clear polycarbonate body. In addition, JConcepts has included the mock light buckets and lens caps to place on top of the racerback and top them off with yellow, era correct, color bucket covers. The product is always backed by JConcepts customer service, supported, and used trackside by our world-wide racing team and developed by professionals with style and authenticity.
Application and paint necessary:
The body arrives clear. For best results, trim, mount, and prep body prior to paint or decals. After trim, clean body with soap and water and allow to dry. Use included window masks, apply to the inside prior to painting. Paint the inside of the body with polycarbonate approved paint only. In this case, a black color will be used, apply light and thin coats to cover evenly and allow too completely dry. Repeat this preparation on the racerback and visor.
Start decal application by lining up and placing largest decals first. Spend extra time when applying over corners to seal the decals in areas which may contain multiple angles or tight spaces. Apply miscellaneous branding, sponsor logos, place headlights and grille of choice and it's time to #gojconcepts. An entire video is produced and available on the JConceptsGarage YouTube channel to show how to apply the Tribute Wheels wrap like a pro.
