1/12th Datsun Safari Car

[Dingo5162]

This has just been finished well just prior to christmas that is, it has been mainly built straight out of the box with the exception of the butterfly flaps on the front bumper, the right hand fender mounted driving light and the reverse light sitting on the rear hatch lid instead of the rear panel. Other mods include some interior stuff like rocket launcher swith for ignition start/stop and the relocating of the navy's Haldas to the glove box plus a dash mounted clock.

Butterfly flaps mounted on front bumper, typical of rally cars in the 70's and earlier.

showing the new dash set-up, with clocks repostioned and dash mounted gauge in pod and one halda in new position. This is a type rally car set up for an Australian rally in the 70's
