JConcepts 1985/1992 Ford BIGFOOT Ranger Body JC0298BFR
The midsized truck wars were intense during the 1980s and 1990s and the Ford Ranger was a standout during this time. An entire lineup of Rangers was produced with several different trim options available to accommodate an evergrowing truck enthusiast crowd. JConcepts steps into the midsized body shell truck market with the 19821992 Ford Ranger release. In 1985 BIGFOOT 4x4 created the ultimate Ford Ranger, first labeled as Ms. BIGFOOT and shortly thereafter, renamed the BIGFOOT Ranger.
The BIGFOOT Ranger was unique, built with 48 tires, 5ton axles, 4link suspension with airbags, the BIGFOOT team created another successful vehicle with a monstrous power plant featuring a 571 Alan Root engine. The BIGFOOT blue paint was first applied to the 1985 body style with linear graphics package to resemble production vehicles available during that time. Eventually, the truck was updated to feature the new 1989 body style, repainted and newer graphics package was applied.
The JConcepts monster truck team went to work using the Ranger body and designed quality decal packages to allow a customer to build the early and late model versions of the popular fullsize vehicle. For popularity, JConcepts adapted this body shell to fit on the Traxxas Stampede and Stampede 4x4 giving the design its best swing of applications on two of the industrys most successful RC platforms. The package includes Ford Ranger decal sheet and BIGFOOT Ranger decal sheet to fully detail the body after customer applied paint has been added.
The styling of the Ranger mimics the fullsize FSeries at the time with the iconic square body shape. Square and single headlights on the earlier models and then wraparound, splitlight, and turnsignal frontend treatment were showcased on the later versions. JConcepts has taken the opportunity to replicate these different headlight and grille combinations on the included decal sheet so many year models can be reproduced.
The shape of the Ford during this generation is simplistic but heavily functional. A worktruck attitude includes rigid sidepanels buckled with wheel flares, notched horizontal body line with single cab concept and recessed windows. The Ranger was a truck built for convenience and economy but blazed with all the important functions of a workerbee. Stacking the odds against the Ranger is not advisable, it is ready for competition.
The geometric wheel wells look stock and matchup to the scale looks recreated by the JConcepts team. The front bumper combines look and feel for a stock layout or a user modified look to fit a scale winch, license plate or custom textured finish. The rear bumper has an overhang allowing drivers to paint or remove to give whichever look suits the build. The entire bed is slightly recessed for mounting versatility and enables a flat surface which can be painted for a bed cover look.
Each package contains clear body shell, window mask, simple instruction, and detailed decal sheet. As always, each JConcepts product is backed with racing heritage, customer support and RC dedication. When sizing up the midsized pickup, do not underestimate a champion, the Built Ford Tough Ranger by JConcepts.
Note: photographs of body shell also display (not included) rollbar, lightbar, carburetors, and air cleaner produced by Traxxas. To add those items, they are available separately via Traxxas (part 3662).
