TAMIYA's HUGE 1/12 Datsun 240ZG model kit from 1973!

Looks like an excellent kit, thanks for showing it. If you build it on your channel then it will certainly be a huge undertaking and I wish you luck with it.

Huge undertaking, literally 😂

[@angeloavanti2538]

Looks like a fun build. I owned 2, '72 Z cars. I still think it was the best looking, driving car ever built. This kit with all of it's moving parts, wow!

[@weekendhobbyist]

Thanks. What colors were they?

[@Pinkys-one-offs]

I think you should build it I would love to see it complete.

@Pinkys-one-offs After going through this kit, I am considering building either this kit or another large kit from my stash but I’ll need a bigger spray booth. Also this might not make any $ sense but considering getting a new version of this kit to avoid issues with decals and missing parts 🤔

[@Pinkys-one-offs]

@@weekendhobbyist I think the big kids would look good if you detail up the engines even extra and add a little bit of weathering to make it look so real

[@weekendhobbyist]

I’m slowly getting into extra details/scratch-building and weathering so it will be a learning curve for me.

How in the world did they make this tooling without CAD in 1973 ?

[@cuda426hemi]

The same way they made all the 1:23 1:24 cars. 👀

I' ve been a model bulder for over fifty years. But what's with the gloves? You won't get nuclear radiation! It's plastic!

[@weekendhobbyist]

I saw them in front of me so thought I would try them for this video. Too distracting?
