Kit Basher Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Does anybody know what 1:1 monster truck bodies are made of? I'm guessing fiberglass or aluminum, but I don't know. Thanks.
PlasticKits Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 As far as I know most are fiberglass the early one were steel. But with the newer trucks they have gone to fiberglass to make them lighter! HTH! PK
SuperStockAndy Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 The old ones were the actual bodies off trucks, now they're just fiberglass like stated above.
Joe Handley Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Yup, as everybody has stated, the originals were usually the real deal, but as they got into racing the things and moving away from the from standard frame and leaf springs to tube frames and coilovers with multilinks, they went to the lighter, more easily replaced fiberglass.
