Give Your Model Authentic Abarth Lines

The Tamiya 51709 body set captures the Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR Berlina Corse silhouette in polycarbonate, producing a light but rugged shell. It is ideal for drivers who want vintage aesthetics combined with practical performance.

Compatibility and Construction

Designed for SHORT (210mm) wheelbase MB-01 chassis cars, the shell offers straightforward fitment and preserves handling balance. Polycarbonate ensures impact tolerance without excess mass. The kit includes livery marking and window masking stickers to make painting easier.

Component Breakdown

Alongside the main body you get PC-ABS detail parts to lift authenticity and metal fittings to secure the assembly for reliable running during high-speed sections.

Suggested Tyre Pairing

Pair 55mm diameter front tyres with 60mm diameter 60D rear tyres for predictable cornering and rear traction. This configuration works well on sealed circuits and club tracks.

Minimal trimming may be needed around wheel openings or posts depending on your chassis setup, but it is pre-cut for a SHORT (210mm) MB-01 layout.
Use polycarbonate-specific spray paints for best adhesion. Masking stickers included will help achieve crisp panels and windows.
Yes, the recommended setup is 55mm front and 60mm 60D rear tyres, which align with common M-Chassis pieces for balance and grip.
Finish with a clear polycarbonate-compatible coat and secure edges. Use foam bumpers or guards where contact is likely to reduce scuffs.
