The Tamiya 58459 1/10 RC Datsun 240Z Rally Version captures the racing spirit of early 1970s rallying in a detailed assembly kit. Model makers will recognise the connection to the Datsun 240Z that took on the tough stages of the East African Safari Rally, notably the 1971 event driven by Herrman and Schuller.
The DF-03Ra chassis provides a dependable 4WD layout that copes well with mixed surface running. This kit assembles into a robust 1/10 scale car with a clear polycarbonate body faithful to the original lines. The included Type 540 motor supplies steady drive, and Tamiya option parts are available if you want to fine tune performance.
Detailed touches include separate resin parts for light housings and bumpers to enhance scale realism. The body accepts the Tamiya LED Light Unit TLU-01 (sold separately) so you can fit illuminated hood spotlights. A set of black offset +2 wheels with Rally Block Tires gives authentic stance and grip for rally-style running.
Collectors and weekend racers alike will find the Tamiya 58459 rewarding to build and run. With the TEU-104BK ESC included, the kit offers a complete electronic base ready for radio, battery and charger installation.
The Tamiya 58459 Datsun 240Z Rally Version is a faithful representation of a classic rally car, offering both display appeal and a capable starting point for historic rally running.
