1/24 Nissan Fairlady 240Z Street Custom (Tamiya Sports Car Series 367)

The Fairlady Z was a hit from its release in 1969, and the Japanese line-up was joined in 1971 by the 240Z. It had an elegant long nose and fastback coupe design, 150hp 2.4-liter inline-six engine, 4-wheel independent strut suspension, and a rack and pinion steering setup. Inside the sporty cabin, the driver had a wide array of instrumentation to hand. The car was a bona fide hit with drivers in both Japan and overseas, particularly the United States, and the car was often customized by its adoring owners.
