Tamiya 58158 - 1/10 RC Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR M02 Chassis Kit - Heritage Racing Edition  [58158]

Historic Abarth Racing in 1/10 Scale

The Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR became notable in touring car circles after Carlo Abarth tuned the Fiat 600 into a competitive racer. Its small displacement delivered lively performance in period events. This 1/10 scale model from Tamiya captures that spirit on the M02 chassis.

M02 Layout and Road Feel

Built around the M02 platform, the model reproduces rear-wheel-drive handling and weight balance typical of classic touring cars. The gear diffs and independent double wishbone suspension help deliver stable cornering and consistent feedback. The ABS monocoque adds strength without excess mass.

Faithful Bodywork and Scale Detail

The lexan body includes styrene detail parts to mirror the original car's compact lines and race-ready look. Careful shaping preserves the model's scale proportions and supports aerodynamic behaviour for scale-speed runs.

Driver Appeal and Collectability

Hobbyists who enjoy rear-drive tuning and historic race styling will appreciate this kit. It also makes a neat display model for collectors focused on classic touring machinery.

The Tamiya Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR balances scale accuracy and enjoyable rear-drive handling, suitable for both track practice and shelf display.
