The Tamiya Lunch Box Kit (HC-58347) brings back a true 1980s classic, first released in 1987 and loved for its boxy van style and lively handling. This R/C assembly kit sits a bold minivan body over monster truck wheels for eye-catching looks and playful performance. A durable 2WD chassis, big 115mm tyres and a rear wheelie bar invite stunt-friendly running on a range of surfaces, while the sealed gearbox helps protect the drivetrain from dust and debris.

Built around an ABS box type frame, the Lunch Box features front independent swingarms and a rear rolling rigid suspension for simple, robust fun. A Type 540 motor and an electronic speed controller are included to get the chassis moving once your radio gear and battery are installed.

This R/C assembly kit recreates a fun and boxy classic VAN with over-sized monster truck tyres. It is one of Tamiya's classic creations from the 1980s (first released in 1987). It has been a fan favourite for its original appearance as much as for its R/C performance. The boxy minivan body has been raised up over monster truck wheels to ensure that this R/C van will grab attention wherever you choose to drive it.

2WD Chassis Mounted on Big 115mm Diameter Tyres
The durable and easy-to-assemble 2WD chassis employs a box type frame, and features front independent swingarms and a rear rolling rigid suspension. Big 115mm diameter tyres offer dynamic running on even the toughest of surfaces. A sealed gearbox protects the diff gear from dirt and sand during off-road driving. Rear mounted wheelie bar enables wild stunt driving.

What motor and esc come as standard in the box please
Chris / 19th December 2025

This will have a standard Tamiya silver can motor and usually a basic carson ESC

Si @ Wheelspin Models
Can you run these on a 2s lipo?
Chris / 16th December 2025

yes you can just make sure the esc is in lipo mode.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
can i buy the kit and then buy the electronics package a few weeks later? (At the same price?) sincerey.
Paul / 11th June 2020

Afraid not Paul sorry

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
how quick does this car go and what battery would you recommend.
Ollie / 2nd June 2020

Speed isn't quoted but we'd estimate around 20-25mph or so.

We'd go for the batteries as shown in our combo packs.

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Do the body come painted?
Billy Heaf / 11th April 2020

No, you'd want a can of TS paint to paint that  eg HC-85034 yellow

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hi, what else will be needed,tools etc,paint?
Rob / 30th April 2018

Yes, you'd require basic modelling tools (screwdrivers, pliers, cutters, craft knife, etc).  Paint would be recommended. 

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
the Tamiya kit combo, is it possible to have this kit with a stick control instead of a wheel control as shown in you picture above? many thanks
James Partridge / 27th November 2016

Yes, you could instead use item ET1100 instead of the wheel radio set.
