The Redcat Racing RER42143 is a fully finished replacement body set for the Ascent-18 Apex. Finished in a professional metallic grey, this body features a modular two-piece design that is a hallmark of the Apex series. It allows drivers to run the vehicle in a lightweight "cab-only" configuration for maximum competition performance or with the included rear bed for a more traditional scale truck appearance.
