Authentic Escort Mk.II rally body for 1/10 M-Chassis models

The Tamiya 51658 Ford Escort Mk.II Rally Body Parts Set supplies a thin, strong polycarbonate shell engineered for 1/10 on-road M-Chassis projects. It gives a faithful exterior silhouette while remaining easy to prepare and fit.

Separate detail pieces for accurate scale looks

The package includes polycarbonate light cases plus white ABS injection parts for side mirrors, bumper elements and fog lamps, enabling precise reproduction of the original rally car's front-end details.

Prepared for neat painting and decals

Window masking stickers and marking decals come with the kit to speed up the painting process and help achieve crisp, factory-style graphics with minimal hassle.

Compatibility and chassis notes

This body is compatible with Tamiya MF-01X chassis with a 239mm wheelbase, so it can be swapped across M-Chassis cars that use the same wheelbase specification.

ABS parts are molded in white to allow painting if you want a colour match, or they can be left unpainted for a clean white detail finish.
Align the body with the chassis mounting posts for the 239mm wheelbase, then trim or adjust mounting holes as necessary to ensure secure, rattle-free installation.
Yes. The clear polycarbonate light cases can be fitted with small lenses, reflective tape or LEDs to add realistic lighting effects with modest modification.
The polycarbonate construction is robust enough for hobby use at club events. Reduce damage risk by using suitable bumpers and avoiding overly aggressive trim lines where possible.
Apply decals after painting and allow paint to fully cure. Use a soft cloth to smooth decals and avoid air bubbles, and consider a light clear coat to protect markings.
