TAMIYA RC 1/14 GRAND HAULER - MATTE BLACK EDITION

Tamiya RC 1/14 Grand Hauler – Matte Black Edition - Unassembled Kit

Take control of a strikingly finished big rig with the Tamiya Grand Hauler in its Matte Black Edition. Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring construction — while the body arrives pre-painted, the chassis and driveline still need to be assembled before driving, and this kit requires a 4-channel radio system rather than the standard 2-channel setup. This model recreates a massive, boxy customized truck in the style of those seen across North America, with body parts given a sumptuous metallic black finish and matte topcoat that contrasts superbly with the numerous metal-plated parts throughout.

A front-mounted motor and 3-speed transmission power the two rear wheel axles, each fitted with a built-in differential for smooth cornering. Customized mood is enhanced with metal-plated parts including the front bumper, radiator grille, roof horn, light bezel, and a plated sun visor over the windshield, while photo-etched parts add further detail to the oversized air cleaners. The ladder frame chassis features aluminum side channels with resin cross members and realistic suspension using metal leaf springs and dampers.
