Refresh Your 1/10 Beetle with the Tamiya 50790 Shell

The Tamiya 50790 1/10 Volkswagen New Beetle Body Set brings the Beetle silhouette to your on-road rig. Designed to suit a wide range of 1/10 scale touring and street-style chassis, the clear polycarbonate body delivers authentic curves while keeping weight low for responsive handling. Its robust construction makes it useful for both spirited club runs and everyday garage builds.

Core Features of the Tamiya 50790 Body Set

Authentic Design: Recreates the familiar Volkswagen Beetle profile for an unmistakable look on track or display.
Durable Material: Molded from impact-resistant polycarbonate to endure bumps and light crashes without adding excess weight.
Compatibility: Works with many 1/10 on-road chassis layouts; minor trimming or mount adjustments may be needed for some setups.
Customization Ready: Supplied clear so you can prep, mask, and paint the body to your own livery and finish.

Will this body fit every 1/10 on-road chassis?

The Tamiya 50790 is intended for most 1/10 on-road layouts, but wheelbase, servo position and mount points vary. Check your chassis dimensions and be prepared to trim or adjust mounts for a perfect fit.

What is the best way to paint the clear polycarbonate shell?

Use polycarbonate-specific paints, wash the shell with mild soap, and apply thin coats inside the shell. Masking and test sprays help achieve crisp lines and consistent coverage.

Is the body suitable for club racing and casual track use?

The polycarbonate construction offers a good balance of lightness and toughness for club sessions. It can take minor impacts, but severe crashes may still cause damage, so inspect and repair mounting areas regularly.
