Hi everybody. This is a Fujimi kit that was a bunch of fun to build! It's a simple kit of an interesting car; there's a fascinating history behind the actual car that I learned while looking for reference photos. The paint on my model is Pactra R/C Competition Orange , wheels are Fujimi 15" Impul Mesh; an old-school design that I think suits the car well. Exhaust tip is from a Fujimi S-15. thank you and all comments are welcomed.

This is one of my favorite cars! But I prefer it in white, silver, or dark green! But the orange suits the car well!

I love old school toyotas!

Thank you! To make a long story short, it was one of Toyota's first rally cars and has a significant status much like the AE-86 Levin and the legendary Skyline. I went to Google and even found a neat restoration of a full-size car! I even ordered another kit to do as a classic dragster.

That's going to be done tomorrow! I realized this as well after I looked at the pictures!

Stunning!! So what's your 'history' to go behind this car?
