Datsun 240z Kyosho. Great grandpa of the 350z

The model is a Datsun 240z Kyosho in 1:18 scale. Cost me about 37euros. It is a good model for shure. I treated it with tamiya fine&finish polish, then waxed it with tammys wax. Plan to make some custom wheels for it some day, and that will be it.

Very cool model and nice details man!:) One question: Who's the grandpa of 350z? 300z? lol

Nahhh the 240z. It goes like this: 240z, 260z, 280z, 300zx z31, 300zx z32, 350z z33. Some sports car history for shure.

260z and 280z? I never knew those things existed! hehe....

You sure know your nissan (datsun) history! :grinyes:

I saw one with wide wheels in maroon also by kyosho

Yeah, I think it;s possible for me to custom manufacture those watanabe wheels, and ZG fender flares. But the undisputable fact is that I'm currently working on 5 models, and 3 of them are being put through intense body changes. Oh well, it'll have to wait.

love it... O_O
