An Ageless Classic
Nissan Fairlady Z is a masterpiece of Japanese sports cars history. The initial model S30 type was a massive success, with global sales of about 0.52 millilon units; in 1971, the Fairlady 240ZG was released as the top-grade model. 240ZG featured the "Aerodyna nose" with integrated bumper, over fenders and individual headlamp covers, plus thrilling performance with a 2.4-liter engine. This car is still popular among sports car fans in the modern day.

Packaging

★The elegant form of this sporty coupe with long nose and cut off tail section is captured in great style. 

★Hinged on its front, the hood opens to reveal the inline-6 engine, with details such as twin carburetors, oil pan and transmission. 

★There is plenty to marvel over on the underside of the model - suspension, exhaust and propeller shaft are realistically depicted.

★Wheels employ metal-plated parts and synthetic rubber tires. Emblems and turn signal rims are recreated using metal transfers. 

★A three-piece part breakdown for the wheels - main section and outer and wheel cover - makes for a streamlined painting process. 

★Window edges, door handles and antenna are rendered using metal-plated parts to give the model a further air of realism.

★This image focusses on the metal-plated body parts. Separate from other components, they allow a simplified painting job. 

★Rear combination lamps incorporate both metal-plated and clear parts, in addition to metal transfers, with breathtaking results. 

★Each rear combination lamp's clear parts are split into two, to make their painting with orange and red that bit simpler.

    ★Left: A detailed interior features depictions of the 3-meter instrument panel, wood-trim steering wheel and gearshift, and faux leather seats.

★Right: Metal transfers are used to recreate certain plated areas on the car. Just apply to the model for a quick and convincing finish.
