Tamiya 58691 Retro Street 1/10 Ford Escort TT-02 Kit  [58691]

Classic Escort Recreated: Tamiya 58691 Ford Escort TT-02

The Tamiya 58691 Ford Escort TT-02 celebrates the look and spirit of a rally era icon. While the full-size Escort made its name with a lively inline-4 in WRC competition, this street-spec RC captures that heritage in a compact, buildable package that balances period styling with practical on-road performance.

Balanced TT-02 Chassis Performance

The TT-02 underpinnings are a shaft-driven 4WD layout prized for stability and straightforward setup. The longitudinal arrangement places battery and motor on opposite sides for a neutral balance, and the platform supports multiple wheelbase and ground clearance settings. Ten available gear ratios let you dial in acceleration or top speed to match your driving goals.

Street-Focused Body and Wheels

The polycarbonate shell is 1.0mm thick to combine toughness with light weight, and the kit includes white ABS dish-style wheels fitted with treaded tyres that suit street surfaces. Masking stickers and window masks are supplied so you can paint an accurate finish that recreates the Escort's distinctive look.

Tuneability and Power Options

Owners can upgrade with a wide selection of Hop-Up Options for suspension, driveline and handling refinement. This kit also includes a new ESC compatible with sensored brushless motors (21.5 turns and higher) as well as compatible Tamiya brushed motors (25 turns and over), giving flexibility when choosing power components.

The Tamiya 58691 Ford Escort TT-02 is a rewarding build for collectors and tuners alike, combining scale authenticity with a chassis that responds well to setup changes. Its combination of detailed styling and upgrade pathways makes it a solid choice for on-road enthusiasts.
