Tamiya 58499 Mitsubishi Montero Wheelie 1/10 Kit - Classic Rally Style  [58499]

Introducing the Tamiya 58499 Montero Wheelie

The Tamiya 58499 - 1/10 RC Mitsubishi Montero Wheelie celebrates the early Montero design, often seen under the names Pajero or Shogun in rally history. Built on the CW-01 chassis, this kit blends sturdy construction with entertaining wheelie performance for hobbyists who enjoy both display and play.

Chassis Setup and Driving Character

Equipped with a 2WD CW-01 chassis similar in concept to the Lunch Box, the Montero uses a front swing axle and a rear rolling rigid suspension to handle uneven terrain while still allowing for spirited wheelies. Its enclosed gearbox is designed to help keep dirt out of the drivetrain.

Detailing and On-Track Ready Parts

The injection-molded body includes bed detailing, a spare tyre and a roll cage for authentic styling. The chunky 115mm tyres add presence and traction, and a wheelie bar is supplied to control lift during stunts. Power comes from a Tamiya 540 brushed motor; add your chosen ESC and radio set to complete the build.

The Tamiya 58499 Mitsubishi Montero Wheelie is suited to modellers and drivers who want a blend of vintage scale charm and fun handling. It works well as a first kit or a light restoration project for experienced hobbyists.
