feretzrus Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) 2 Datsuns by Doyosha (formerly Yamada) models. The 1/23 scale blue '71 Bluebird 610 had only a flat chassis plate with battery door and a flat interior plate to make space for motorization. This was replaced with a chassis and suspension from Tamiya's '72 Skyline with many of the interior pieces molded/cast from a 1/20 scale Bluebird kit and modified. The 1/25 Sunny Coupe had the same chassis/interior setup; replaced with Revell Datsun 510 chassis and interior, with the dashboard molded/cast from the Hasegawa Sunny truck kit that just happened to show up. Thanks for looking! Edited May 30, 2016 by feretzrus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddyfink Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Nice! Very nice!! Who's kits are they? I really like that 1200! But that 710 is no slouch either! Great job on both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peekay Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Great to see some unusual Japanese subjects, specially when so nicely done.(And I liked your choices for European cars in your other post. Thought I was the only one here who'd like to see a Ford Zephyr or a Triumph Herald.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nacho Z Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Although the subject matter is not my cup of tea, as they say, I do like well built models, and these two are very well built models! Great paint, great trim work and nice job on the panel lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
