Altough looking like a lancia in its racing avatar with the intercooler and all its definately a Jap car ...I would say a DATSUN ..either a birdwood (due to the dual grill) or the 510 of 60-73.

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.

This quiz is for Cars and not for model cars. That was a totally invalid question.

Stick to cars where the driver is in the car (and not pedal cars)

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.

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.
