By: Tim Gluth

Fans of classic rally car racing should love the latest release from Tamiya. The Ford Escort MK II 1970's Rally is a throwback to old-school rally machines and offers yet another beautifully-designed replica of a 1:1 vehicle.

Riding atop its MF-01X chassis, the pre-painted mid-to-late-70's Ford Escort MK II body captures all of the compact, stout lines of its real-world counterpart. Additional details such as side-view mirrors, front-mounted rally lamps, bright blue wheels, and knobby tires help finish off the appearance of this 1/10-scale replica.

Under the hood, the Tamiya Ford Escort MK II features a 540-size brushed motor, TBLE-02S ESC, a plastic, tub-style chassis for solid, dependable performance.

To complete this kit build, you'll need to supply a 2-channel radio system, steering servo, battery, and battery charger. The polycarbonate body has been pre-painted and includes a detailed decal sheet to hep you recreate the 1:1 rally car in full detail.
