The Tamiya 58518 Super Clod Buster made a notable comeback with its 2012 release, channeling classic 1980s pickup truck looks. Metal-plated trim on the front grille, air intake and roll bar enhances the realistic scaled appearance.
Beneath the classic body sits a robust twin-motor layout with a dual gearbox that provides true 4WD traction. Eight coil spring dampers and massive 165mm diameter tires help the truck tackle rough trails and mud, while the 4-wheel steering system improves tight-area control.
The kit uses a bathtub-type monocoque chassis for strength and easy assembly. Front and rear trailing arms pair with sealed gearboxes and differential gears to deliver smooth power transfer and dependable handling across uneven terrain.
This edition upgrades the original mechanical speed controller with a TEU-103BK ESC tailored for dual motors. Two included 540 motors give the model ample propulsion for off-road play and scale demonstrations.
For hobbyists who value classic truck aesthetics paired with modern drivetrain engineering, the Super Clod Buster is a versatile kit for collectors, weekend bashers and scale off-road fans.
