Classic Unimog Character in the Tamiya 58557 Model

Why the CW01 Works Well

The CW01 chassis is a straightforward and rugged choice from Tamiya, popular for its ease of maintenance and dependable construction. It combines a robust axle setup with a front suspension arrangement that helps smooth out uneven surfaces. The 2WD drivetrain is easy to service and the friction dampers assist with controlled rides.

Scaled Off-Road Ability and Character

Custom Finishes and Lighting Ready

The clear polycarbonate body is supplied ready for trimming and painting, and the vinyl sticker sheet gives authentic markings. LED light buckets are included so you can add lights later for night-time running or display presentation.

The Tamiya 58557 Unimog 406 Wheelie is a rewarding build for model makers and RC drivers who appreciate a balance between scale style and stunt capability. Its combintion of durability and customisation potential makes it a versatile model.
