About product

Datsun Bluebird 1600 SSS with a front spoiler in 1:24 - a Hasegawa kit

An injection-molded plastic kit from the Japanese manufacturer Hasegawa in 1:24. The boxing is marked as the form with a front spoiler under the bumper, which is the main distinguishing feature against the basic version of the same subject. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted, with instructions and a decal sheet. The number of parts, the extent of the decal schemes and the way the engine bay is rendered are given in the enclosed instructions.

The real subject

The Datsun Bluebird 1600 SSS is a more sportingly tuned version of the Japanese mid-size sedan from the turn of the 1960s and 1970s. The SSS designation meant a more powerful form with a pair of carburetors, stiffer suspension and a richer set of instruments. The car made its name above all in rallying, where it profited from a simple and durable design, independent suspension and low weight. The angular body with prominent fender flares is among the recognizable shapes of Japanese car design of that time, and a front spoiler under the bumper was a popular period accessory.

Building and painting tips

An angular body with sharp edges forgives little. Sand the parting lines carefully, so that the edge stays sharp, and check the shape against the light. The chrome accessories, of which this subject has quite a few, should either be kept in their original finish or oversprayed with a specialized chrome paint on a smooth gloss base. The trim strips can be brought out with a fine brush or with chrome decal film. Spray the base color with an airbrush in thin coats over primer, and apply gloss varnish before the decals. Finish the interior with the instrument panel before the body is closed. Pay attention to the windows; on cars of this period they are large and are visible from inside as well.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of Japanese cars of the 1960s and 1970s in 1:24
  • Anyone interested in period sports sedans and their competition history
  • Modelers who enjoy working with chrome details and trim strips
  • Builders with basic to intermediate experience of painting car bodies

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
