Compact Trail Machine: Tamiya 58704 Land Cruiser 40 Quadtrack

The Land Cruiser 40 is a vintage 4WD favourite, and Tamiya models it in 1/12 scale as the 58704 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Pick-Up Quadtrack. Mounted on the GF-01FT chassis, this kit blends classic looks with a track system built for variable terrain play.

Why Tracks Change the Game

Tracks increase contact area and lessen ground pressure, helping the model move over loose surfaces and soft ground more effectively than standard tyres. The quadtrack conversion gives predictable traction and a different driving feel for trail sessions.

GF-01FT Drive Layout

The GF-01FT is a gear-driven four wheel drive chassis with a monocoque shell and a central motor position for compact packaging. The equal wheelbase and tread dimensions make the handling balanced for off-road runs and light crawling.

Fine Tuning Traction

Choose between flat track links or more aggressive patterned links to match your preferred running surface. These options let you prioritise roll efficiency or digging bite depending on sand, mud, or turf conditions.

Whether you display it or run it on local trails, the Tamiya 58704 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Quadtrack offers a distinctive driving experience thanks to its track configuration and robust chassis design.

Basic modelling tools like nippers, screwdrivers, and hobby glue are sufficient; a small wrench set and pliers make drivetrain assembly easier.
Yes, the plastic body accepts hobby paints; mask windows and follow recommended paint sequences for best finish results.
Tracks improve traction in damp or muddy spots, but take care to protect electronics from water exposure and clean the drivetrain after wet runs.
At 1/12 scale the model is compact enough for easy transport in a hobby bag, though carrying spare links and basic tools is recommended for field repairs.
