The first model to be featured on the chassis is a pick-up version of the Toyota Land Cruiser 40, a world-famous off-road vehicle that needs little introduction.
It was produced for almost 25 years and much loved for its durability and adaptability.
The GF-01 chassis plays off the successful and fun line-up of RC kits such as the Wild Willy 2, Volkswagen Type 2 and the Farm King Wheelie.
Whereas those kits featured a 2WD and easy to wheelie platform, the new GF-01 is a 4WD incarnation with the motor directly placed in the center in order to drive the gears in the front and rear gearboxes.
