Overview
The Axial 1967 Chevrolet C-10 Body in uncut clear polycarbonate is an authentic reproduction of one of the most iconic pickup trucks in automotive history. This premium RC body shell captures the timeless appeal of the classic 1960s Chevy with its distinctive raised hood, sunken bed, and clean vintage lines that enthusiasts crave. Whether you're building a scale crawler or customising your 1/10 RC car UK collection, this body shell delivers genuine retro styling that stands out from modern designs and appeals to collectors and serious RC modellers alike.
Designed specifically for the Axial SCX10 platform, this body is perfect for hobbyists looking to create an authentic scale representation or those wanting to personalise their RC crawler with authentic American truck heritage. The uncut clear finish gives you complete creative freedom to paint and customise the body exactly as you envision it, making this an ideal choice for modellers who want to add their own personal touch to their RC vehicle.
This is a pure bodyshell component, meaning it focuses entirely on delivering authentic styling and quality construction rather than being part of a ready to run RC package. The 12.3-inch wheelbase ensures perfect proportions for the 1/10 scale platform, and the comprehensive detailing throughout makes this body shell a standout addition to any serious RC enthusiast's collection.
