What to expect from the Tamiya Opel Kadett GT/E body kit

The Tamiya 51727 - 1/10 RC Opel Kadett GT/E Body Set offers a faithful polycarbonate interpretation of the Kadett GT/E for MB-01 long-wheelbase models. It is engineered to be both lightweight and robust, allowing repainting and detailing while keeping handling predictable. The shell is intended for MB-01 chassis with a 239mm wheelbase.

Kit contents and material notes

  • Polycarbonate main body: Material choice provides impact resistance and minimal weight for consistent running.
  • PC-ABS detail pieces: Supplied trims and smaller parts are made from PC-ABS to keep crisp lines and durability.
  • Masking and decal set: Includes window masks and livery stickers to assist accurate painting and finishing.
  • Metal fixings supplied: Metal components are included so the body can be attached securely to the MB-01 chassis.

Mounting and fit considerations

This body is cut and positioned for MB-01 chassis with a 239mm wheelbase to ensure correct mounting points and wheel clearance. Check your chassis length before fitting to avoid unexpected trimming.

Best prices around. Everything is well packaged and quick postage.
The body is intended for the 239mm MB-01 wheelbase. Shortened chassis will likely require modification and may not achieve correct overhangs without trimming.
PC-ABS detail parts are sturdy for normal handling and accept paint well. Handle small parts carefully during finishing to avoid stress at thin sections.
Metal fixings can corrode if exposed to moisture and salt. Clean and dry components after wet use and consider using corrosion resistant hardware if you run in harsh conditions.
