Detailed Chevy S-10 Scale Truck by Tamiya

The Tamiya 58146 Chevy S-10 captures the look and proportions of the original Chevrolet S-10 in a 1/10 scale kit. It delivers a hands-on build that balances scale authenticity with practical performance for hobbyists who enjoy assembly and tuning.

Chassis Designed for Trails

The 4WD chassis on this Tamiya 58146 is built to take on rough tracks. Durable components and an independent suspension layout give solid control over gravel, packed dirt, and uneven ground, helping the truck stay stable during aggressive trail runs.

True-to-Scale Body and Lightweight Construction

The polycarbonate Chevy S-10 shell reproduces authentic panels and styling while keeping weight low for better handling. The detailed body is ideal for paint customisation and scale touches that appeal to model builders and collectors alike.

How It Stacks Up Against Other Kits

Compared with simpler classics like the Grasshopper, the Tamiya 58146 offers a more involved build and greater scale accuracy. Its 4WD drivetrain and realistic body make it a solid pick for those who want a credible scale truck that can also be used off-road.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10

The Tamiya 58146 Chevy S-10 is well suited to hobbyists who want a realistic, buildable off-road truck that handles rugged terrain and accepts custom paint and upgrades.

Assembly is moderately involved; someone with basic RC kit experience will find it manageable, while complete beginners should expect a learning curve and may want guidance.
A 540-size brushed or brushless motor and a compatible ESC are common choices. Select components that match your driving style and the truck's gearing for reliable performance.
Yes, the 4WD layout and independent suspension make it suitable for dirt, gravel and packed sand. Avoid deep mud or water unless you add waterproof electronics and sealed bearings.
Use polycarbonate-specific paints applied from the inside or masked outside details. Light coats and patience yield the best finish and preserve scale lines.
