1971 Safari Rally Legend: Datsun Fairlady 240Z

The Datsun Fairlady 240Z earned lasting respect with its 1971 East African Safari Rally victory, surviving roughly 3,300 miles of punishing terrain where many competitors did not finish. Powered by a durable six cylinder layout, the original car proved endurance and reliability. The Hasegawa HR8 1/24 scale kit recreates that iconic rally car for model builders and collectors who want an accurate tribute on display.

What build skill is needed for the Hasegawa HR8 kit?

This kit is rated at Skill Level 3, so it suits intermediate builders who are comfortable trimming, sanding and painting multiple plastic parts.

How should I approach painting and decals for the rally livery?

Prime the plastic, use thin coats of lacquer or acrylic paint for an even finish, and apply decals over a gloss clear to avoid silvering. Allow decals to fully set before a final matt or gloss coat.

Are any optional detail parts recommended?

Aftermarket parts such as fine wiring, resin seats or small photo-etched items can lift the detail, but the kit builds well out of the box for an authentic 1971 Safari presentation.
