Tamiya Opel Kadett GT/E (MB-01/MB01 Chassis) Assembly Kit, Kit No. 58729

Here is another R/C kit with the MB-01 chassis – this time, long wheelbase and midship rear motor / rear wheel drive (MR). The Opel Kadett GT/E released in 1975 was a high-spec version of the Opel Kadett, a car which enjoyed great popularity in Europe in the 1970s. The GT/E had a 2-door coupe body, a high-spec 1.9 litre engine and reinforced suspension; the works Opel Eurohändler team, satellite teams and privateers took part in rally races with modified versions of this car, and in 1976 it secured second place in the manufacturer’s championship in global rally races.

About the Model

The form of the Opel Kadett GT/E is authentically recreated in lightweight polycarbonate, and the colour scheme of the works Opel Eurohändler team is employed.

About the MB-01 chassis

The compact, 2WD MB-01 chassis gives a choice of three types of wheelbase, and front- or rear- wheel drive system. Without removing battery pack, motor and R/C equipment setups from the centre frame, simply change attachment directions of final gears and steering linkage to switch between front- and rear-wheel drive; low or high motor position can be chosen for rear-wheel drive cars. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension features symmetrical structure and friction dampers. Unitized sections such as motor mount, final gears and suspension facilitate ease of assembly and effective maintenance.
