Back in July 2021 Kaido House in collaboration with Mini Gt released their first model of the Pro Street Datsun 510 in both Green (S1/01) and Purple (S1/02). Years later the same Datsun 510 Pro Street designed by Jun Imai was issued in Chrome purple as their anniversay edition was released in December 2024.
The paint job on this model was nicely done. It has opening hood with a painted engine and the Greddy name on it. Chin spoiler, chrome bumpers, a large rear spoiler, 8 spoke alloy rims, black barrel rims, and the rubber tires have white Japanese characters on it. The interior has carbon fiber.
Comparuson between the chrome purpl and the original purple.
There are some variations on the livery and even the wheels. The Kaido House website stated the scale as 1/55. The only thing I did not understand is why Jun called it the anniversary edition as the month the chrome purple was released is different from the original purple. It also did not state the specific number of the anniversary.
The Kaido House packaging has the distinct double box.
