Style and Function for Your 1/10 Volkswagen Beetle

The Tamiya 50790 1/10 Volkswagen New Beetle Body Set gives your model a faithful Beetle outline while keeping weight low. The clear polycarbonate shell is built to cope with normal running and is suitable for street-style and on-road conversions. It arrives unpainted so you can tailor colours and details to your build.

Notable Details of the 50790 Body Set

Authentic Design: Shapes mimic the classic Beetle lines for a convincing scale appearance.
Durable Material: Tough polycarbonate construction helps absorb small impacts and scuffs.
Compatibility: Fits a variety of 1/10 on-road chassis with common mounting arrangements; minor trimming may be required for some builds.
Customization Ready: Clear surface accepts polycarbonate paint and decals for a personalised finish.

How do I check if the shell will match my chassis wheelbase?

Measure your chassis wheelbase and compare it to the printed trimming guide on the inside of the shell, or hold the shell over the chassis to mark mount positions before cutting.

Are special paints required for polycarbonate?

Yes, use paints formulated for polycarbonate bodies. They adhere better and flex with the plastic to reduce cracking or peeling.

Any tips for trimming and mounting the body?

Score cut lines with a sharp knife, progress slowly with small cuts, and dry-fit the shell frequently. Reinforce mount holes if needed and use body clips that match your chassis.
