Tamiya 1978 Ford Zakspeed Capri (TT-02)

The Tamiya 1978 Ford Zakspeed Capri (TT-02) is a 1/10 scale 4WD RC car kit, built on Tamiya’s TT-02 chassis. It arrives as a box of parts rather than a finished car, so you assemble the chassis, fit the electronics and paint or trim the body before the first run.

Finished, it measures 488mm long with a 251mm wheelbase. The body is polycarbonate, so it takes knocks better than a hard shell.
