Hello All,
I'm kinda new here so this may be old news, but there is a Japanese company
that sells mail order model kits on the Internet. They list two Fujimi 1/24
scale Datsun Roadster models. They are right hand drive/hi-windshield 2000
Solex cars.
Race type

or stock

I got the racer. The "race type" kit includes all the stock type parts plus
a roll-bar, different mirrors, glue on flares, a set of stock looking wheels
without hub-caps (chrome wheels/ hubcaps are standard), an oil cooler, some
strange decals, and a factory looking hard top. The prices are about $12 for
the stocker and about $15 for the racer plus about $10 ups shipping to the
U.S. only took about a week to get it. This site has other cool old Japanese
kits, maybe even another (1/32 scale?) Roadster kit and has a search feature
to make finding stuff easy.
Sorry if I sounded like an infomercial, but I was really excited about
finding a Roadster model kit. I was pretty impressed with the quality of the
kit too. The exhaust system and engine details are a bit disappointing but
the rest of the model is good and the it looks nice when assembled.
