Here is my 1:18 BRE Datsun 240Z 1970-71 SCCA Championship Winner by Kyosho.
This car was concieved and created by Pete Brock,a legend whose story is so long and eventful that I cannot possibly share all of it here.But here is a link that should give you a fair idea about Peter Brock and his venture,Brock Racing Enterprises (BRE).
Pete Brock and BRE
The car seen below was raced to victory by John Morton and is a proper motorsport icon.Kyosho has done a spectacular job on this 1:18 scale-model of the legendary racer.The detailing,quality and paint finish are all absolutely beautiful.
And it is now time to let the pictures do the talking.

Even the box is special and celebrates this car's glorious heritage.

There is even a photo of the man who drove it.

And more BRE livery inspired printing on the rest of the box.

This little booklet contains still more trivia including an address by Peter Brock himself.Kyosho limited the production of this model to 3500 pieces.

Beautiful car complemented with some great photography.
The detailing is just mind blowing. The detailing of the wiring in the engine bay is of a kind which one doesn't see in many diecast scale models.
Congrats on the great get PH. Smile
