Classic Trophy Truck Recreation

The Tamiya 58495 brings an iconic Ford F-150 Baja truck to 1/10 scale, offering a hands-on model that reflects the rugged racing heritage. The kit is geared toward hobbyists who enjoy detailed assembly and realistic race truck aesthetics.

TA02T Platform and Drive

This model uses the TA02T chassis with a shaft-driven full-time 4WD system to keep torque delivered evenly across all four wheels. The double wishbone layout helps maintain composure over rough ground and tighter sections alike.

Engineered Strength

The reinforced bathtub chassis includes honeycomb-style ribs that add rigidity while keeping weight low. Paired differentials, including a front gear diff and rear ball diff, give a well-balanced handling feel across varying surfaces.

Period-Correct Finish

The polycarbonate body faithfully mirrors Ford F-150 contours, and the semi-gloss metal-plated rims combine with block-tread tyres to produce a convincing off-road look and useful traction.

Drive Components

Equipped with a 540-J motor and the Tamiya 104-BK ESC, the truck delivers steady acceleration and manageable top-end. Oil-filled dampers aid stability over rough sections for a predictable driving experience.

The Tamiya 58495 is a solid choice for model builders seeking a period-correct trophy truck that balances straightforward assembly with authentic handling traits.

Intermediate builders will enjoy the step-by-step build, though novices can complete it with patience and basic modelling tools.
The body arrives as clear polycarbonate so painting is needed to achieve the finished look; masking and polycarbonate paints work best.
Block-tread tyres are a good baseline, but you can fit softer compound tyres or larger paddles for very loose gravel or soft surfaces.
Basic RC tools like hex drivers, side cutters and a soldering iron are helpful; a hobby knife and small files speed up parts prep.
Yes, adjustable shocks, gear ratio changes and motor upgrades are common tuning routes to suit faster club-style runs.
