Another one of these type of builds that I enjoy.

The kit.

Used these wheels, but the ones on the build were taken from another LB Works kit and left bare black plastic.

Paint is Tamiya TS-5 Olive Drab, over fenders painted with Mr Finishing Surfacer 1500 black.

Headlights are coated with a yellow Sharpie.

Tail light surrounds Molotow chromed. Aluminum tube exhaust tips

Nice clean work!

Besides the flat color the headlight treatment catches my eye along with the grill not being present. I'll have to start looking for those wheels.

Very nice Luke.  Really like this era of the Skyline.

Very cool little Nissan! I've looked at this kit many times. But, never have pulled the trigger. Can the headlights be mounted straight instead of angled?

The one pictured they are molded at an angle, although I think with your skill they could be modified and re positioned.

Kit does contain other options. 

Dont take the kit too seriously and it can be alot of fun to build with a bit of imagination and creativity. Worth the cost of the kit imo.

Yeah have become a bit of a fan myself, but I like any 2 door coupes not matter who the manufacturer is.

Yes and can be built a few different styles and still be cool.
