JConcepts 1985 Ford Aerostar BIGFOOT Shuttle - 9.75" WB

JConcepts 1985 Ford Aerostar BIGFOOT Shuttle Body (Stampede)- 9.75" WB

One of the most endearing vehicles of all-time in the BIGFOOT® 4X4 line-up is the Shuttle. Based on a 1985 Ford Aerostar van, the crew from Missouri set out to build something the whole family could enjoy and learn from. The Shuttle was routinely used as a training vehicle for new drivers learning how to negotiate the 4wd steering so typical on monster trucks. It also made a great vehicle to test drive a new track, perform a scouting run through new terrain or provide entertainment for home videos driving through riverbeds and tackling camping trips.

JConcepts is on a mission to provide BIGFOOT® body shell options for popular RC vehicles in the market. The 1985 Ford Aerostar by JConcepts is fit for the Traxxas Stampede, and with the included body mounts is versatile enough to drop into place on a variety of the Stampede variants available over the years. The clear and one-piece body has all the stand-out features that made the Aerostar memorable, starting with the low slope angle hood and windshield. The high roofline of the van body runs the length of the shell and drops back just behind the rear wheel wells to allow space for the rear hatch door and window. 

The side profile of the Aerostar is rather flat, and purpose built for shuttling the entire family between events. The entire side of the body has recessed windows with 5 different individual panes and body lines throughout providing more 1980’s identity in each direction. The front and rear wheel wells have a built-in flair giving some extra rigidity and blend perfectly with the design. Front and rear bumpers are also carved into the design and with included decal sheet, can be outfitted with miscellaneous license plate designs.

The unique shape of the body requires special and included #5120 angular front bracket for the standard front mount to position the mount at the correct angle for the van body. The included JConcepts rear body mount is built for the square post retainer located in Traxxas body mount kit #TRA3619 (not included). This provides a steady and dual post assembly for the rear with the capability to reach the top of the Aerostar van body. The clear body is packaged with licensed Ford Aerostar decal set, BIGFOOT® 4X4 Shuttle decal sheet, injection molded body mount accessories, and window mask for quick and easy paint.

The body shell is manufactured with passion at the JConcepts headquarters in Groveland, Florida. Overspray film is standard on the item, and the entire package is backed with JConcepts customer support and heritage. Look for reputable dealers and distributors and demand authentic products – choose JConcepts.
