| Distinguished - BHPian ![]() | ID 124: is a 1/24th scale Fujimi kit of a 1971 Nissan Skyline GT-R [KPGC-10] coupe. ![]() The acrylic liquid gloss finish and the dull plastic in the headlamps, gives away the game that it is not a real car, but a scale-model. (The photo-etched brass wipers had me confused for a moment!). And judging by the detailing, it is not 1:18 or 1:16 scale, but a 1:24 scale. So I judged that it is a 1/24th scale Fujimi model car kit. But excellent photography though. The PGC-10 (P stood for Prince) was intended for racing. So every extra ballast was stripped. It was very lightweight inside. No heater, no stereo, no nothing! The coupe-version of the GT-R (KPGC-10) was introduced in March 1971. A shorter wheelbase, two door body and less weight made for better maneuverability. The PGC-10 sedan and KPGC-10 coupe scored a total of 50 racing victories, in 2 years until its production was stopped in 1972. Ram Postscript: Do read my post #491 on "The glittering world of automobile miniature scale-models" (The Scale Model Thread) in The Scale Model thread.

I know the thread is for Cars and not for model cars. myselfarihant has posted a picture of a 1:24 scale model of a car. That plastic scale model is small enough to stand along the open palm of my hand. I just identified it. Ram | |

| Distinguished - BHPian ![]() | ID125: is the retro-styled 1990-model E-PK10 Pao by Nissan. ![]() It had a 987 cc 4-cyl. engine that put out 52 bhp@6000 rpm and 76 Newton-m of torque@3600 rpm. The engine came with a 3-speed automatic or 5-speed manual gearbox. Fuel economy was 18 km/litre in the city and 29 km/litre while leisurely cruising at 60 km/h. Turning circle was just barely over 14 ft. It was available as a hatchback or soft-top convertible and in just 4 gray colors. Besides the Aqua gray and Ivory gray shown, there was an Olive gray and a Teracotta gray. The grays were achieved not by paint but by a fluorocarbon resin wax that achieved these colors in a life-long finish. In the first quarter of 1989, there was a three-month wait for this car after booking. Ram |
