The Tamiya 58384 Subaru Brat reproduces a distinctive classic in a buildable 1/10 kit. This model keeps the retro lines of the original while offering a straightforward assembly process favoured by hobbyists who enjoy authentic restorations and weekend running.
The original Subaru BRAT used smart design to mix passenger comfort with light utility, making it stand out in its day. Tamiya's kit captures that mix of style and purpose so fans can recreate a slice of automotive history in miniature form.
Mounted on a reliable 2WD chassis similar to The Frog, the Brat model features 4-wheel independent suspension for better wheel articulation over rough ground. It comes equipped with a Type 540 motor and an ESC to deliver consistent throttle control across varied terrain.
Included are two bodies: a traditional plastic shell for display accuracy and a polycarbonate shell built to withstand active running. Builders can pick the look they want or swap shells depending on whether they are showing or driving the car.
Tamiya 58384 offers a tidy blend of classic styling and practical running options, ideal for collectors and those who enjoy hands-on kit building.
