Early 70's Datsuns

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!datsun 610 1.JPG

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.)
