The Tamiya 58687-60A Escort MK II brings a period-correct rally icon to the RC scene. Modeled after the Ford Escort that featured heavily in historic rallies, this pre-painted 1/10 kit rides on the MF-01X chassis to deliver both authentic looks and a robust, serviceable drivetrain.
The MF-01X chassis features a sturdy monocoque with integrated gearboxes to keep the drivetrain compact and reliable. With a rear-mounted motor and a driveshaft to the front gearbox, the system provides 4WD traction and balanced handling thanks to front and rear differentials.
Independent double wishbone suspension at all four wheels and friction dampers give the car predictable reactions across hard surfaces. Fitted rally block tyres supply consistent grip for controlled slides and precise cornering.
The pre-painted polycarbonate shell arrives in period colours and includes separate plastic trim for bumpers, mirrors and fog lamps. Light buckets accept 5mm LEDs (sold separately) and the decal sheet reproduces authentic sponsor graphics to finish the Escort look.
A fine choice for enthusiasts who want a genuine rally silhouette with a chassis that is easy to maintain and upgrade, the Escort MK II on MF-01X suits display builds and spirited club running alike.
