Worth knowing

Tamiya's first "stunt vehicle" capable of wheelies. A 2WD off-road novelty jeep on a purpose-built high-stance chassis, reusing the big tires from the Blazing Blazer (58029). The original wheelbase proved too wheelie-happy and was extended ~12-15mm by moving the rear axle back. Discontinued 1987. Body represents the Willys M38 military jeep, hence the name.
