Tamiya 56356 1/14 Grand Hauler Matte Black Truck Kit  [56356]

Take Charge of Highways with the Tamiya Grand Hauler 56356

For hobbyists who value practical build quality and an authentic look, the Tamiya Grand Hauler 56356 special edition blends ease of assembly with true-to-life styling. The model channels classic North American big rig proportions and arrives with a pre-painted metallic black body in Tamiya Color TS-40. The matte finish gives the truck a contemporary, low-gloss appearance without requiring any paintwork from the builder.

Solid Engineering and Chassis Details

The ladder frame chassis is engineered with aluminum side channels and resin cross members to balance strength and weight. Metal leaf springs and friction dampers recreate the feel of a heavy haul truck while providing reliable handling. This construction keeps the model robust for regular use while remaining straightforward to service.

Realistic Drive and Control

A front-mounted motor drives the dual rear wheel axles through a 3-speed transmission, with built-in differentials that help keep cornering smooth. The kit supports a 4-channel R/C setup and a compatible multi-function unit (each sold separately) so you can add lighting, sound and vibration effects for a more immersive driving experience.

The Tamiya Grand Hauler 56356 is well suited to new builders who want a clean finish out of the box, while its detailed chassis and upgrade paths will keep experienced modelers engaged.
