Tamiya 47497 1/10 Squash Van - Retro Green/White Pre-Painted Body, GF-02 Chassis and ESC  [47497]

Retro style with a solid GF-02 platform

The Tamiya Squash Van 47497 captures 1950s panel van charm while using modern RC parts. The pre-painted polycarbonate body in Cobalt Green with a white roof sits on the gear-driven GF-02 chassis, offering a mix of eye-catching looks and practical durability for everyday running.

Chassis traits and on-track behaviour

The GF-02 chassis favours realistic wheelbase proportions and stronger construction compared to smaller platforms like the GF-01. Its ladder and pipe styling echoes real vehicle frames and the 4WD setup combined with fully independent double wishbones gives composed, confidence-inspiring handling on varied surfaces.

Starter-friendly yet upgradeable

Assembly is simplified by the pre-painted bodyshell and ready-made mount points, making it a good entry kit. Hobbyists can swap electronics and fit performance parts easily. Included are a 540 brushed motor and ESC; you will need to add a 2-channel radio, steering servo and a suitable battery and charger to run.

The Tamiya Squash Van 47497 pairs nostalgic styling with a practical GF-02 chassis, making it a standout choice for drivers who want a distinct, tunable 1/10 scale model for casual running or display.
