Tamiya 58715 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 (CC-02)

Tamiya 58715 CC-02 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40

Attention: Pre-order! We expect to ship the car in the first week of May.

The first generation Toyota Land Cruiser was launched in 1960 with the model name 40. It was the start of a legendary four-wheel drive car, that for decades has helped set the standard for off-roaders. Now Tamiya has launched their version Land Cruiser 40, and of course on the competent CC-02 Crawler chassis.

Tamiya 58715 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 is packed with details and almost looks like a real scale model. The car has a roof rack, side mirrors, turn signals and much more to give the perfect replica look. As a new feature, there are now stickers for the windows, which have window frames and windscreen wipers to save the detailed paint job.

The car is built from a ladder frame with front and rear differentials - just like the real car. This ensures off-road capability off-road as well as on tarmac. Suspension consists of double wishbones at the front, with single links at the top and H-arms at the bottom, and rigid rear suspension.

Cross Country Tamiya CC-02 platform

The Land Cruiser is built on the powerful Tamiya CC-02 platform, which has permanent 4-wheel drive and a longitudinal engine that transmits power to the front wheels via the gearbox and to the rear wheels via the universal joint propeller shaft. CC stands for Cross Country and with oil-filled CVA dampers and hard all-road tyres, the Tamiya Land Cruiser 40 is ready to tackle all surfaces and terrain.

The car comes with 12-spoke rims that are pre-painted in silver, as well as coarse off-road tyres with block pattern.
