Hasegawa 20267 - 1/24 Nissan Sunny Truck (GB120) Long Body Deluxe (Early Type)  [HA-20267]

Revisiting the Classic: Hasegawa's 1/24 Nissan Sunny Truck (GB120)

The Nissan Sunny Truck, a staple of the 1970s automotive scene, was originally launched in 1971. Built on the reliable Sunny car chassis, it quickly became a favorite in Asian markets due to its fuel efficiency and dependable performance. However, American enthusiasts had to wait until the early 2000s to experience this iconic vehicle, following the repeal of tariffs that had previously restricted its import.

Hasegawa's 1/24 scale model kit of the Nissan Sunny Truck (GB120) captures the essence of this classic pickup with meticulous attention to detail. This kit represents the early type of the long body deluxe version, offering modelers a chance to recreate the truck's distinctive features from the 1973-1979 era.

Modeling Appeal and Features

This kit is not just about nostalgia; it's a comprehensive modeling project that includes newly designed parts such as the front grille, hubcaps, steering wheel, and seat components. These enhancements ensure that the model accurately represents the early version of the Sunny Truck, making it a rewarding build for seasoned hobbyists.

The scale model measures 175mm in length and 63mm in width, providing a compact yet detailed representation of the original vehicle. Builders will appreciate the option to choose between different vehicle heights, adding an extra layer of customization to the project.
