Tamiya 58070 Midnight Pumpkin Retro 1/12 2WD Truck Kit  [58070]

Classic Reborn: Tamiya 58070 Midnight Pumpkin

The Tamiya 58070 - 1/12 Midnight Pumpkin 2WD returns with the distinctive vintage truck lines mounted on the CW-01 chassis. Fans of classic pickups will recognise the 1953 Ford F-100 influence, and the scaled ABS body plus oversized rubber tyres make it a hands-on favourite for trail runs and display.

Heritage Styling

Its retro bodywork captures the old school truck silhouette while the ABS construction keeps the shell resilient. The chevron tread tyres and tough plastic undertray are made to take bumps and dirt without needing constant repairs, so you can enjoy both building and driving.

Drive and Handling

Mechanically the Midnight Pumpkin uses a simple 2WD setup with a solid rear axle and an independent swing axle at the front for predictable handling. Friction dampers and a gear differential help stabilise the chassis, while the kit is designed around a mechanical ESC and a 540-brushed motor for straightforward power delivery.

The Tamiya 58070 Midnight Pumpkin is ideal for builders who appreciate a vintage look with dependable, low maintenance mechanics. It suits collectors and newcomers who want a classic-style truck that will handle light off-road use.
