Tamiya GF-02 Squash Van RC Monster Truck Electric 4WD 1/10 Scale Kit (No ESC)

Description
Please Note:

This kit comes without an ESC, Servo, Battery, Charger, or Transmitter and will come with an unpainted body that may require cutting, painting and drilling.

The Squash Van is a large-tyre vehicle that draws inspiration from 1950s American panel vans. Its polycarbonate body shell sits atop the gear-driven 4WD GF-02 chassis, a modified version of the GF-01. While the GF-01 features a comical design, the GF-02 takes a more realistic approach with its wheelbase and a frame adorned with ladder and pipe elements.

The wheelbase is designed to match the LWB CC-02 chassis, opening up several body options from the CC-02 range. Both front and rear axles use identical double wishbone suspension. A pre-threaded servo mount at the rear allows for easy installation of a second servo, enabling advanced 4WS configurations.

Drawing from 1950s panel van style, from the rounded headlights and body design to the flared arches, the Squash van body has been carefully designed to showcase everything that people love about this era of motoring.

Double Wishbone Suspension
