Fiat 500 1/10 body shell for M series chassis

The Tamiya 51363 body parts set is a replacement outer shell created for the 1/10 scale Fiat 500 R/C (Item 58427). It is an OEM-style scale accessory suited to hobby use on M-series chassis and offers a ready option for repair or visual upgrades to that exact 1/10 Fiat 500 model.

Fitment guidance from the original product indicates that installing on M-03 chassis types (excluding the M-03M) will require the M-03M F Parts (Upright) extension (Item 51238), sold separately; ensure you follow chassis-specific mounting points and check for sufficient wheel and suspension clearance. The body dimensions are recorded as width 170mm, length 347mm, and wheelbase 225mm to assist in confirming fit and ride height considerations.

Choose this body set to replace or restyle your 1/10 Fiat 500 R/C; verify the necessary M-series mounting parts and trial-fit prior to painting and final assembly.

Does this shell need additional mounts for M-03 type chassis clearance?

For M-03 variants other than the M-03M, the M-03M F Parts (Upright) extension (Item 51238) is recommended to align the body mounts correctly. Check your chassis variant and mount geometry before fitting.

How will the 170mm width affect wheel fitment and tyre choice?

A 170mm body width limits the maximum track and tyre width that fit without trimming. Use the width figure to select tyres that clear the wheel arches or plan arch trimming if fitting wider wheels.

What is the shell made from?

The material is not specified in the listing. Inspect the part on receipt and follow standard handling for RC bodies when cutting, sanding and painting.

Where are common interference points to check when fitting?

Check wheel arches, front bumper clearance, and body post positions relative to the servo and suspension. Trial-fit the shell and mark any areas that rub or contact moving parts before trimming.

Should I paint the shell before or after test fitting?

It is best to test-fit and mark all trimming and mounting holes first. Once satisfied with fitment, remove the shell, complete paint and finishing, then reassemble for final mounting.
