Step into the world of RC with the Tamiya 58668-60A, a delightful homage to the 1st-generation Volkswagen Type 2 (T1). Known affectionately as the Volkswagen Bus, this vehicle captured hearts from its inception in 1950 until its production end in 1967. Tamiya's model beautifully encapsulates the essence of this icon while pairing it with the sophisticated M-06 chassis for an authentic rear-wheel-drive experience.
The M-06 chassis is designed to bring out the best in rear-mounted motor, rear-drive setups. With a longitudinally-mounted battery pack and R/C radio gear perfectly balanced on either side, this chassis delivers exceptional stability and a low center of gravity. Its 4-wheel double wishbone suspension ensures smooth handling across various surfaces, while the 60D radial and super grip tires provide traction that mimics real-world driving dynamics.
The Tamiya Volkswagen Type 2 T1 model showcases a meticulously recreated polycarbonate body, highlighting the iconic 23-window design. Additional molded plastic parts for bumpers, light cases, and side mirrors add depth and authenticity. This model rides on a 239mm wheelbase, supported by metal-plated dish type wheels, and is powered by a robust 540 motor.
The Tamiya 58668-60A Volkswagen Type 2 T1 is perfect for enthusiasts who appreciate classic design combined with modern RC performance. Its superior chassis dynamics make it a joy to drive, appealing to collectors, beginners, and seasoned racers alike.
