Retro rally styling for your M-Chassis 1/10 build

The Tamiya 51658 Ford Escort Mk.II Rally Body Parts Set brings period-correct rally lines to 1/10 on-road cars. Made for Tamiya M-Chassis platforms, the body uses thin, resilient polycarbonate for a balance of scale looks and track-ready toughness.

Scale details and separate light components

Separate polycarbonate light cases are supplied for authentic front styling, while white ABS injection parts replicate side mirrors, bumper details and fog lights to enhance realism.

Masking and decal aids included

The kit includes window masks plus marking stickers so you can get sharp paint edges and original-style graphics without complex masking setups.

Which chassis it suits

This body is intended for MF-01X cars with a 239mm wheelbase, so it adapts well to M-Chassis models that match that measurement with minimal modification.

Can I use this body on other wheelbases?

This set is cut for a 239mm wheelbase. Other wheelbases may require trimming or different mounting post positions to fit correctly.

Are the small trim parts pre-painted?

No. The ABS parts are molded in white so you can paint them to match your chosen livery or leave them as-is for a clean look.

How should I protect clear areas during painting?

Use the supplied window masking stickers to cover glazing areas, then apply light coats of polycarbonate paint to avoid runs and ensure even coverage.

Do the light cases accept LEDs or lenses?

The polycarbonate light cases provide a clear area to mount small LED boards or reflective lenses, though some trimming or mounting tabs may be needed for custom lighting.
