1988 was a great time to be a Chevy fan with the release of the new “Heartbeat of America” fleetside pick-up truck. Trucks were starting to become one of the most popular automobiles on the road and Chevy was in the thick of it with a brand-new release. Simultaneously, the war in the Monster Truck world revolved around a heated rivalry featuring the two best names in the business for the first ever points championship. If you were a fan in this era, the 1988 body style provided new hope and optimism.
JConcepts is on top of the best monster truck body styles in the business with the release of the 1988 Chevy Silverado for the Mini LMT. The 1988 styling is very clean, updated, refined, and doesn’t display boxy looks from the early 80’s. The fleetside design is spot-on featuring slight curvature to the main shape, new headlights, grille treatment and form-fitting wheel wells. The slight flare to the tire openings gives just a little wrinkle to the bedsides and front fenders to accommodate different sized tires for maximum versatility.
Decal design is a constant focus and with all JConcepts bodies, a quality sheet is included with grille, headlight, and taillight layout. Many JConcepts logos, brands and product names have also been included to give a full complement of useable artwork. Best of all, the new body delivers the style that today’s Monster Trucker is looking for without compromising on the rugged and dependable qualities. The 1988 Chevy Silverado is a sample of the bold, new offerings constantly in the queue with JConcepts.
This combination is intended to be used without the standard cage fitted to the traditional Mini LMT chassis layout. Instead, install the included body mounts on the chassis and use the appropriate angled style mount to the front and parallel mount to the rear. Adjust the height front and rear to personal liking and install the body clips as a traditional body. Body clip leashes are also included to help keep the clips in order; these can be installed to user preference and position of choice. Several different height and angled mounts are included for future projects and releases to accommodate an assortment of MT body shells.
Each package includes a window mask assortment, 1988 generation Chevy specific decal sheet, JConcepts #5230 body mount set, fast back, and clear polycarbonate body. The product is always backed by JConcepts customer service, supported and used by our world-wide racing team and developed by professionals with style and authenticity. When it’s time to fabricate a race truck or flash back to the golden years of Monster Truck Racing by dressing out a scale build, JConcepts is World Proven Innovation and Design.
