Tamiya Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR BG Painted (MB-01)
-
Description
This is a limited-edition version of the Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR Berlina Corse (Item 58721-A) kit with pre-painted, pre-cut body and wheel arches, great for not only beginners but also veterans of the hobby.
The origin of M-chassis series history goes back to December 1994, and this series has been popular due to cost-effective kits with a wide choice of bodies, ease of maintenance and control for any users, great 2WD performance and rigidity.
The new MB-01 chassis continues that tradition, and allows six setups by choosing from three types of wheelbase, and front- or rear- wheel drive system. Its first body recreates the Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR Berlina Corse which was a car developed with high level tune-ups based upon the compact 2-door Fiat 600. The muscular form had front and rear over fenders, a large radiator cover integrated with the front bumper, and horizontally-opened engine hood. A 982cc inline-4 engine capable of over 110hp underpinned its powerful performance.
