Subaru Brat 1/10 Metallic Special Kit Tamiya 84237  [84237]

Classic Brat Styling Recreated in Metallic 1/10 Scale

RC builders wanting a vintage pickup vibe will appreciate the Tamiya 84237 - 1/10 RC Subaru Brat (Metallic Special). Modeled after the late 1970s original, this edition captures the quirky pickup profile with a standout chrome-style plated finish that looks great whether parked on display or running outdoors.

Authentic layout with solid construction

The Tamiya 84237 kit is faithful to the original while being built for hobby use. It features a silver-plated frame and a resilient resin body, plus a spare clear polycarbonate body for custom work. Beneath the shell, the ABS frame houses a rear-mounted motor that powers the rear wheels in a traditional 2WD setup for straightforward handling.

Capable suspension and gearing choices

This model uses a 4-wheel independent suspension system with front double wishbones and rear trailing arms to manage uneven terrain. Oil dampers fitted with aluminium cylinders smooth out impacts, and the set of three pinion and three spur gears lets you alter gear ratios to suit different driving styles.

Supplied electronics for quick completion

Included components like the 540-J motor and Tamiya 104-BK ESC mean the Subaru Brat can be finished and enjoyed without sourcing extra drive gear. The semi-pneumatic block tyres mounted on 8-spoke wheels provide realistic looks and dependable grip for general off-road use.

Tamiya 84237 Subaru Brat appeals to modellers who like period-correct detail with practical running parts. Its mix of display-ready finish and upgrade potential makes it a versatile kit for both collectors and trail riders.
