1/24 Nissan Fairlady 280Z with T-Bar Roof (Tamiya Sports Car Series 15)

Ever since the first model (S30) rolled off the assembly line in 1969, the Nissan Fairlady Z has been popular all over the world! In 1978, a second-generation model, the S130 type, appeared after undergoing a full model change. It inherited the basic form of the long nose and short deck, which improves the aerodynamics; the rear suspension was changed from struts to semi-trailing arms. The brakes were also upgraded to disk brakes for all four wheels. The engine was equipped with a 2-liter and 2.8-liter in-line 6-cylinder engine with an electronically controlled fuel injection device, giving it the character of a high-speed tourer. The T-bar roof, which allows both sides of the roof to be removed while leaving a thin central part, was adopted for the first time in 1980; it allowed owners to enjoy the feeling of openness comparable to that of an open car. The fame of the second-generation Fairlady Z, combining excellent driving performance with high safety and comfort, has been solid throughout the years.

This model kit from Tamiya features a T-bar roof that can be attached and detached using transparent parts; the hood can be made removable as well. The engine room, the back of the chassis, and the interior are all well-detailed; the wheels, headlights, and front and rear bumpers are plated. A masking sticker for painting the roof is included, as is a driver figure. Order yours today!
