Tamiya 84373 1/12 VW Type 2 T1 Wheelie Special Edition Kit  [84373]

Alloy-look style meets Tamiya 84373 engineering

If you enjoy detailed scale styling, the Tamiya 84373 VW Type 2 T1 Wheelie combines period-correct looks with a chassis designed for reliable running. The limited edition trim gives the classic Bus a refined, show-worthy presence on shelves and in short driving sessions.

Classic silhouette with practical handling

The T1 Splitscreen is an icon and this model keeps that unmistakable profile while fitting it to a WR-02 chassis that allows the body to be driven, not just displayed. That balance makes it appealing for both display collectors and light-duty RC use.

Underpinnings and driving feel

The WR-02 platform offers a solid monocoque structure and independent double wishbone suspension for predictable geometry. With a 540-brushed motor powering the 2WD drivetrain, the kit delivers consistent torque and the friction dampers plus chevron tread tyres offer dependable grip for general surfaces.

Build enjoyment and unique components

Assembly is approachable thanks to the gearbox and motor parts that come pre-built. The special white chassis, silver metal-plated frame and black metal-plated wheels provide unique visual accents without adding build complexity.

Tamiya 84373 VW Type 2 T1 Wheelie suits hobbyists who want a faithful classic shape with user-friendly assembly and reliable running characteristics for casual outings.
